Hi all:
Novell has a IPsecTools based VPN client. We are trying to integrate
that with Network Manager. We will start sending in the patches for
vpn-daemon soon.
The attached first patch makes the tunnel device optional in the core
NetworkManager code. This is because, the IPsec based VPNs do not depend
on tunnel device.
Appreciate any comments on this..
thanks & regards,
Preggna
