[Users] Multiple tunnels: squeezing rsa keys in ipsec.conf?

        Hello!

   I am trying to setup multiple tunnels in a set of hosts.
 At the moment I would like to avoid using DNS for rsa keys distribution,
 I just want the keys to be supplied in local configuration files,
 but I wish them to be contained in a somewhat optimized manner.

   As a public key is an immanent property of a host (rather than connection),
 thus one could guess that it must be enough to attribute that key
 to that host only once (e.g. in a way like ssh used it to).
 But AFAICS it's not possible now: one has to put the same pubkey for the host
 in ipsec.conf (via (left|right)rsasigkey) repeatitively in each conn section
 that the host belongs to.

   Is there any way to squeeze that repetitions?
 Maybe there is a way to assign a pubkey an ID of some sort
 and use it later in (left|right)rsasigkey statements?

   Thank You.

      QingLong.
