secure connection with IPSEC etc.
Hello list I have to connect two lan's via ISDN. Certainly the connection should be secure. I think about a linux-box in each lan with ISDN-cards, which act as routers with a VPN-connection beetween them. Now I am looking for some information about these things (ISDN, VPN and how to bring them together). So I want you to ask which kind of VPN-implemantation (CIPE, FREESWAN) would you use or maybe you can tell me some sources of information about this. I've already gone through the HOWTO's and the Manual-pages. TIA Guido PS: I'm sorry that this is not a"real" question. Maybe you can sent me the information directly and not via the list. -- ----------------- Guido Tschakert SRC GmbH, SysAd -----------------

FreeS/WAN is not trival to setup with dynamic IPs on both sides. You'll need to adapt some things (in ppp/ip-up and others) in this case, and with dial-on-demand it seems not be very reliable (I made a script which restarts the stuff if the get hang, i.e. on remote hangups-and-immediatly-reconnected which may confuse ip-up/ip-down a little). If you have direct dial in, you're fine with FreeS/WAN, since you can tune all paramters :) If you want to try out FreeS/WAN, I recommend to use SuSE 7.1 or own version, since in the last few month there were some changes which should make dynamic addressing (and others thing) more easy. oki, Steffen -- Dieses Schreiben wurde maschinell erstellt, es trägt daher weder Unterschrift noch Siegel.
