That was my original point. (Though as PGPnet shows, IPsec implementations
can use OpenPGP keys as part of the session creation process.) GnuPG isn't
an IPsec program. It would probably be more reasonable to expect FreeS/Wan
to integrate PGP support.

BTW, has anyone here gotten FreeS/Wan to work? :)
