Re: [Users] FreeSWAN and Raptor Enterprise Firewall

About a month ago I described how to set up a connection between
FreeS/WAN and a Symantec Model 200R using preshared secrets and a client
or key ID (Symantec misleadingly calls it a Distinguished Name):

  http://lists.freeswan.org/pipermail/users/2002-April/009037.html

For key ID support you'll need to apply the X.509 patch. I hope this
description helps you in connecting to your Raptor Mobile VPN client.

Regards

Andreas
