[Openswan Users] How do I definitively tell openswan what interface I want to use?

Just now noticed this reply.  Not sure how my post from Wednesday got in here twice.  Anyway, I suppose for clarity, an ideal solution might be to show all the IPs in the conn definitions.  That's probably more trouble than it's worth - so maybe just show the interface it will use for the tunnel without any IPs.  Maybe something like, " ipsec_setup: multiple ip addresses, using addresses on br0"

Thanks

It should show all IPs?

That message is misleading, and should probably be removed.
