Hi Paul,

after fixing two compile errors, I managed to install newest OpenSwan from git.

But unfortunately I get the same error message, see below.

The DUT is based on Free BSD, as far as I know. Maybe I can get some more specific info.

Kind Regards,
Michael

I believe this a bug that has been partially fixed since 2.6.24, but we have not
released 2.6.25 yet. It has to do with responding to a rekey. I think some
Windows flavours do a rekey (eg quickmode) while some in reality to a new
exchange from scratvh.

You can try the current git version.
