Description-en: Shrew Soft VPN client - Daemon and libraries
The Shrew Soft VPN client is a free IPsec VPN Client for FreeBSD, NetBSD,
Linux and Windows operating systems. This product can be used to communicate
with Open Source VPN servers (e.g. ipsec-tools) as well as some commercial
VPN servers.
.
This package provides a IKEv1 (ipsec key exchange) daemon and libraries used
to maintain a IPSec VPN connection. It provides similar functionality as
racoon, OpenSwan, FreeSwan, StrongSwan, IsaKmpD but is more user-interactive.
.
Note: You should install the ike-qtgui package to have a graphical
user interface to configure and use VPN connections.
