Hi,

My name is Artur.

can someone help me with this error?

Hi,
Thanks a lot for your answer. I will try it.
I have a question and I hope it will not sound too silly as
I do not have a lot of experience with openswan and ipsec.
I see in that wiki page of wireshark that rules were added with
spadadd. AFAIK, to add such rules, you need to create a file (myRules)
and run setkey -f myRules.

My question is: does openswan work in conjunction
with setkey ? is adding rules with setkey in such a way
when working with Openswan is the only way ? or is there an alternative?

Rgs,
Kevin
