Hello, In order to use my shorewall/2.6 based firewall to route IPSECed (openswan) wireless, I need to apply these patches from the patch-o-matic-ng (extra): 1) ipsec-01-output-hooks 2) ipsec-02-input-hooks 3) ipsec-03-policy-lookup 4) ipsec-04-policy-checks 5) policy It took me a whole night to figure out that these are only cleanly applicable to a 2.6.6 kernel and nothing later - which is ok with me ... if I only would have managed to find this information without loading down 2.6.9, 2.6.8, 2.6.7 and 2.6.6 source and testing the patch-o-matic with every single one of these! Can somebody please help me dummy in finding this information? Are these patches expected to get a revamp to be capable to cope with 2.6.9? On another note: are/when are these features scheduled to go into the 2.6 series? Thanks for any hints, Joh
