Some more comments on the above experimental code:

* AH (Authentication Header) works fine on 2.2.2-RELEASE kernels.

* ESP (Encapsulated Security Payload, which means encrypted packets)
  has some glitches yet on the 970623 version yet, causing data
  corruption on TCP applications such as ftp or ssh. Itojun and the
  developpers are working hard to fix the problem.

* Some kernel debugging experience is needed to involve the beta
  testing since the code is still in the experimental phase.
