Hi !
I don't know how to install IPSec Tools in Centos 6. I found only a RPM for Centos 5.6 but unfortunely it doesn`t work in Centos 6. I need this tools for configuring a VPN in my server.

Thank you guys !

Esteban

It doesn't help that the version you can download from sourceforge doesn't even compile on CentOS 6


If anybody finds an rpm for this, it'd be really quite useful

Hello...

Go to http://dowload.fedoraproject.org (you will be redirected to a mirror), enter releases/15/everything/source directory. Download ipsec-tools-0.8.0-1.fc15.src.rpm package, it is the latest version.

Run rpm -ivh ipsec-tools-0.8.0-1.fc15.src.rpm
go to rpmbuild/SPEC directory
edit the ipsec-tools.spec file and remove flex-static from the line 32 (flex alone is enough for build)
run rpmbuild -ba ipsec-tools.spec and wait for it to compile
go to rpmbuild/RPMS/x86_64 (or i386 dir - depends on architecture) and run:

yum install ipsec-tools-0.8.0-1.el6.x86_64.rpm --nogpgcheck

that should do it ... please report if it works for you...

hope ipsec-tools gets to epel repo ....

S.

Well, the thread hijacker is satisfied but we haven't heard back from the OP. In any case, welcome to new members, and please see the recommended reading linked in my signature. Also of interest may be How to Rebuild a Source RPM.

As the OP got more help in a duplicate post additional answers should be directed there. This thread is now locked.
