A message that I sent to the freeswan list, anyone have any comments?
Another thing on that list was that it looks like S.u.S.E. 6.3 is gonna ship
with freeS/WAN. Very, very cool!

Well, now that freeS/WAN is running reliably on 2.2x, what's the best way to
properly upgrade a Rh5.2 box running freeS/WAN 1.00?

I have recently done some hardware upgardes to the system (cpu, ram) and just
got an 8.2gb hdd for it, so I can ghost the present setup to the new drive
and do the upgrade to rh6.0/2.2.12 kernel on it, or start from scratch if
necessary (would prefer not to go this route), but what changes, if any will
I need to do, remove ipsec before upgrade or just upgrade it to 6.0, install
the 2.2.12 kernel, install the latest snapshot and go? or what?
