any examples of IPsec working against PGPnet ?

Post by Patrick Wetmor » Mon, 24 Jul 2000 04:00:00



Hi all,

I'm trying to connect to my OpenBSD machine via IPsec from an NT client.
I'm trying to use PGPnet, but the two systems refuse to talk to eachother.

Does anybody have any working configuration/policy files (minus any
authentication info, of course) they could share?

Thanks,

- pat

I had roughly this working a while ago - Win95 + PGPnet -> OpenBSD 2.6

http://www.wibble.ent/~sky/isakmpd.policy

All identifying marks have been removed to protect the guilty :-)

HOSTONE was the PGPnet machine (also worked with Linux FreeS/WAN),
HOSTTWO was the OpenBSD machine. I don't know if these still work ok for
2.7, but it should give you a base to work from.

HTH,
        Nic.

> Hi all,

Have a look at www.allard.nu, it where i learned "how to"
It describes pgp-net + openbsd + preshared-keys for auth.

I still have to manage using with certificates, as i understand it
might be possibel in 2.7

Hi Peter,

Thanks, that one worked!

However, it seems to be working without my having created any certificate
information on the OpenBSD host...

I checked the connection via tcpdump, it's encrypted.  But is it securely
encrypted, or does the lack of certificates on the OpenBSD side open it up?

PGPnet created some keys as a prerequisite for starting up PGPnet, maybe
those are being used?

Never mind, I think I get it.  It's not using certificates at all, it's the
secret passphrase... the fact certificates were mentioned in the .conf file
is irrelevant.

Johan allard's webpage describes authentification with PRE-SHARED keys.

No certificates used.

However, one ought to replace preshared-keys with certificates. Some days
ago i only needed 2.7 CD to test , but now i have to get myself a new laptop
too(mine was stolen yesterday :-( )

I'll drop a note here if and when i succeed with pgp-net and certificate auth.

Thanks in advance.
