[Openswan Users] Openswan isntallation

[Zaeem Sherazi]

Dear Ondrej,

 

Actually I am not using license version of OS and secondly it is older version (RHEL 5). So it is I thought its better to download lates version of Openswan and install it. Now I am using openswan-2.6.24.tar.gz but facing below mentioned error.

 

"make[3]: *** [/usr/src/openswan-2.6.24/modobj26/ipsec_tunnel.o] Error 1
make[2]: *** [_module_/usr/src/openswan-2.6.24/modobj26] Error 2
make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/kernels/2.6.18-8.el5-i686'
make[1]: *** [module26] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/openswan-2.6.24'
make: *** [module] Error 2"
 
When I rebooted PC then on boot screen I can see message "Starting ipsec: ipsec_setup:  Starting openswan IPSec U2.6.24/K2.6.18-8.el5" It seems system is trying to start openswan but unable to do so. As a result operating system is not able to boot fully and just stuck on boot level with above error.
 

Please let me know if you know its solution.

 

Thanking you in advance



Regards,

Zaeem Sherazi
