Hi,

I am new to IPSEC. I am trying to install IPsec on Linux desktop which is running Red Hat 7.3 Linux kernel 2.4.18-3. I am installing following version of IPSEC module.

freeswan-module-2.02_2.4.18_3-0.i386.rpm freeswan-userland-2.02_2.4.18_3-0.i386.rpm

>From the site I am not able to download
freeswan-rpmsign.asc , Could someone help me out please?

I followed the instruction given on the Freeswan site. But I am getting following errors

# service ipsec start

ipsec_setup: Starting FreeS/WAN IPsec 2.02...
