Description: IPSEC utilities for strongSwan
 IPSEC is Internet Protocol SECurity. It uses strong cryptography to provide
 both authentication and encryption services. Authentication ensures that
 packets are from the right sender and have not been altered in transit.
 Encryption prevents unauthorised reading of packet contents.
 .
 This version of strongSwan supports Opportunistic Encryption (OE) out of the
 box. OE enables you to set up IPsec tunnels to a site without
 co-ordinating with the site administrator, and without hand
 configuring each tunnel. If enough sites support OE, a "FAX effect"
 occurs, and many of us can communicate without eavesdroppers. 
 .
 In addition to OE, you may manually configure secure tunnels through
 untrusted networks. Everything passing through the untrusted net is
 encrypted by the IPSEC gateway machine and decrypted by the gateway
 at the other end. The result is Virtual Private Network or VPN. This
 is a network which is effectively private even though it includes
 machines at several different sites connected by the insecure Internet.
 .
 Please note that you will need a recent kernel (>=2.4.24 or 2.6.x)
 for using this package. The standard Debian kernel includes both IPSEC
 and crypto support, patching the kernel is no longer necessary!
 .
 If you want to use the KLIPS IPSec code for kernel modules instead of the
 native ones, you will need to install either strongswan-modules-source or
 linux-patch-strongswan and build the respective modules for your kernel.
 
Package: strongswan-modules-source
Architecture: all
Depends: coreutils | fileutils, debhelper, bzip2
Recommends: kernel-package (>= 7.04), kernel-source
Suggests: strongswan
Description: IPSEC kernel modules source for strongSwan
 This package contains the source for the strongSwan modules to get the necessary
 kernel support to use strongSwan.
 .
 It includes the NAT Traversal patches, which will need to be applied to the
 kernel tree if NAT Traversal is needed.
 .
 This package will not work with 2.6 kernels! It is recommended to use the 
 native IPSec stack included with 2.6 kernels with strongSwan. If you want to 
 use KLIPS (the FreeSWan/Openswan/strongSwan IPSec kernel support) with a 2.6
 kernel, then please use the openswan-modules-source package. It is 
 interoperable with the strongswan user space programs.

Description: IPSEC Linux kernel support for strongSwan
 This package contains the patches for the Linux kernel to get the necessary
 kernel support to use strongSwan. If you want to build a kernel module for
 IPSec, it is much easier to use the strongswan-modules-source package instead.
 This kernel-patch package should probably only be used when building a
 non-modular kernel or when compiling IPSec non-modular.
 .
 It includes the NAT Traversal patches and applies them automatically to the
 kernel after inserting KLIPS.
 .
 This package will not work with 2.6 kernels! It is recommended to use the 
 native IPSec stack included with 2.6 kernels with strongSwan. If you want to 
 use KLIPS (the FreeSWan/Openswan/strongSwan IPSec kernel support) with a 2.6
 kernel, then please use the linux-patch-strongswan package. It is 
 interoperable with the strongswan user space programs.
