[Ipsec-tools-devel] Issue with ipsec-tools package

[HR, H. <har...@hp...>]

Hi,

We are facing some issues with “ipsec-tools” package on Ubuntu (running 2.6.35 kernel) and Debian (running 2.6.32 kernel and above)


The command “setkey –DP” produces



Policy:[Invalid direciton]



message with ipsec-tools versions 0.7.1 and 0.7.3 when the racoon daemon is running.



We upgraded the ipsec-tools version to 0.8.1 in which the typo “direciton” has been resolved but still the above message is seen.



The same command has no such message seen on Debian running 2.6.18 kernel



What is the relation between the later kernel versions(2.6.32 and above) and the racoon daemon ? Has it got something to do with the racoon daemon or the later kernels ?



It would be much appreciated if you could provide us with some suggestions/pointers in resolving this issue.



Thanks & Regards,

Harsha
