Hi all

I am trying to port IPsec 2.6.33 on ARM11 soc running linux kernel 2.6.37
(Netkey IPsec stack). I am experiencing strange behavior.When I start ipsec
(/etc/init.d/ipsec start) console become unresponsive for long period of
time (5+min). I run same thing in background and check the output of  ps and
I observed this:

58 root       0:00 /bin/sh /usr/local/lib/ipsec/_plutorun --debug  --uniquei

 1482 root       0:00 /bin/sh /usr/local/libexec/ipsec/newhostkey --quiet
 1483 root       0:00 /bin/sh /usr/local/libexec/ipsec/newhostkey --quiet

Is it an expected behavior? Is anything missing?

I do not have perl support on my setup so I can not use verfy.

Ipsec status giving me a cryptic response:

# ipsec setup --status
IPsec stopped
but...
has subsystem lock (/var/lock/subsys/ipsec)!

Anyone got any Idea whats going on? Any help will be highly appreciated.
