1This document is derived from the KAME racoon FAQ. Some answers do not 2apply to ipsec-tools (they are obsolete or not up to date). They are 3tagged [KAME] 4 5Q: With what other IKE/IPsec implementation racoon is known to be interoperable? 6 7A: [KAME] 8 See "IMPLEMENTATION" document supplied with KAME kit, or: 9 http://www.kame.net/dev/cvsweb.cgi/kame/IMPLEMENTATION 10 As we have tested/got test reports in the past, and our end and 11 the other end may have changed their implemenations, we are not sure 12 if we can interoperate with them today (we hope them to interoperate, 13 but we are not sure). 14 Also note that, IKE interoperability highly depends on configuration 15 on both ends. You must configure both ends exactly the same. 16 17Q: How can I make racoon interoperate with <IKE/IPsec implementation>? 18 19A: 20 Configure both ends exactly the same. With just a tiny little 21 differnce, you will be in trouble. 22 23Q: How to build racoon on my platform? 24 25A: 26 As usual: configure && make && make install 27 ipsec-tools is also available as a package in the NetBSD pkgsrc 28 29Q: Describe me the options to "configure". 30 31A: 32 --enable-adminport: 33 Lets racoon to listen to racoon admin port, which is to 34 be contacted by racoonctl(8). 35 --enable-natt: 36 Enable NAT-Traversal. This needs kernel support, which is 37 available on Linux. On NetBSD, NAT-Traversal kernel support 38 has not been integrated yet, you can get it from here: 39 http://ipsec-tools.sourceforge.net/netbsd_nat-t.diff 40 If you live in a country where software patents are legal, 41 using NAT-Traversal might infringe a patent. 42 --enable-broken-natt: 43 When ipsec-tools is built with --enable-natt, racoon 44 sets IKE ports in SAD and SPD so that the kernel is 45 able to ditinguish peers hidden behind the same NAT. 46 Some kernel will not cope with that ports. Use that 47 option to force the ports to 0 in SAD ans SPD. Of 48 course this means that you cannot have multiple peers 49 behind the same NAT. 50 --enable-frag: 51 Enable IKE fragmentation, which is a workaround for 52 broken routers that drop fragmented packets 53 --enable-hybrid: 54 Enable hybrid authentication, and ISAKMP mode config and 55 Xauth as well. Note that plain Xauth (without hybrid auth) 56 is not implemented. 57 --with-libradius: 58 Enable the use of RADIUS with hybrid authentication on the 59 server side. RADIUS is used for authentication, configuration 60 and accounting. 61 --with-libpam: 62 Enable the use of PAM with hybrid authentication on the 63 server side. PAM can be used for authentication and accounting. 64 --enable-gssapi: 65 Enable GSS-API, for Kerberos V support. 66 --enable-stats: 67 Enable statistics logging function. 68 --enable-samode-unspec: 69 Enable to use unspecified a mode of SA. 70 --enable-ipv6: 71 Enable IPv6 support. 72 --with-kernel-headers: 73 Supply the location of Linux kernel headers. 74 --with-readline: 75 Support readline input (yes by default). 76 --with-openssl: 77 Specify OpenSSL directory. 78 --sysconfdir: 79 Where racoon config file goes. Default is /etc, which means 80 that racoon will look for /etc/racoon.conf 81 --localstatedir: 82 Where is the directory where racoon stores the control socket 83 (when using --enable-adminport). Default is /var, which 84 means racoon will use /var/racoon/racoon.sock 85 --prefix: 86 Where racoon gets installed. 87 88Q: How can I get help? 89 90A: 91 Always identify your operating system platforms, the versions you are 92 using (like "ipsec-tools-0.5"), and information to repeat the 93 problem. The more revelant information you supply, the better your 94 chances of getting help are. Useful informations include, depending 95 of the problem: 96 - version identification 97 - trace from racoon, taken by "racoon -d 0xffffffff" 98 (maximum debug level) 99 - configuration file you are using 100 - probabaly, tcpdump trace 101 http://orange.kame.net/dev/send-pr.html has the guideline. 102 103 If your question is not confidential, send your questions to: 104 <ipsec-tools-devel@lists.sourceforge.net> 105 106 If your question is confidential, send your questions to: 107 <ipsec-tools-core@lists.sourceforge.net> 108 109Q: Other documents to look at? 110 111A: 112 http://www.netbsd.org/Documentation/network/ipsec/ 113 http://www.kame.net/ 114 http://www.kame.net/newsletter/ 115
