>> New untested version 1.99.7.2! SOURCE RPM for SuSE Linux ≥ 7.3

Old version 1.99_kb2 SOURCE RPM for SuSE Linux ≥ 7.3

(Based on Red Hat RPM from http://tis.foobar.fi/software/?freeswan, http://www.freeswan.ca/code/super-freeswan/)
Compile with: rpm --target i586 --rebuild super-freeswan-1.99_kb2-2foo.src.rpm
  (New: rpm --target i586 --rebuild http://m1b.de/content/files/super-freeswan-1.99.7.2-1foo.src.rpm)
Install with: rpm -ihv /usr/src/packages/RPMS/i586/super-freeswan-1.99_kb2-2foo.i586.rpm
Compile & Install Kernel modules:
rpm -ihv /usr/src/packages/RPMS/i586/km_super-freeswan-1.99_kb2-2foo.i586.rpm
cd /usr/src/kernel-modules/zz_superfreeswan/; make oldmod
cd /usr/src/linux; make SUBDIRS=net/ipsec modules_install

Here is a diff to spec from Tuomo Soini
(Note1: use rpm -Uhv ... instead of rpm -ihv ... if conflicts are reported)
(Note2: Packages: gcc, make, openssl-devel, kernel-source have to be installed before (YaST2)

Caution: If you plan to use NAT-T (nat traversal) you need to recompile the whole kernel also. That would be: (after the procedure above)
cd /usr/src/linux; make bzImage; make install
(Thanks to Tuomo!)
