We have taken the code from last june and very painfully
ported ONLY the IPSEC part into FreeBSD 2.1R.  It is non-trivial
to do this (understatement of the century).  The NRL release
wants you to make both their version of IPv6/IPSEC at the same time,
and we don't want or care about IPv6.  So what we have is IPv4/IPSEC.
(The IPv6 stuff requires even more munges to IPv4, than just IPSEC/IPv4).
Also their ipsec stuff is socket based.  We have done minimal 
testing of the socket tied-in code and are beginning to test it
in a bigger way.  We are also tying the NRL ipsec stuff to routing 
as that is what we really want (VPNs).  If you have any interest,
I suggest private email.
