F/X Communications today released new versions of the Pluto IKE
server and the InJoy IPSec Plugin. The full announcement available at
this location:

  http://www.fx.dk/fxpress23112000.html 

Most noteable new features:

New Pluto 1.70 features (OS/2 only version): 

   * Windows 2000 IPSec interoperability. 
   * Cisco PIX and Cisco IOS VPN compatibility. 
   * Nortel Extranet Switch 2.6 (or newer) interoperability.

New IPSec 1.70 features: 

   * New SHS tool for better monitoring of SA negotiations. 
   * IPSEC.CFG file contents no longer case sensitive. 
   * SA's using dynamic passwords and extended authentication will
     now cause InJoy to pop-up a password prompt (requires NEW InJoy
     version).
   * Stand alone IPSec clients with an external IP address can now
     use NAT to convert the external IP address to a static "inner"
     IP address (e.g. within the 192.168.x.x or 10.x.x.x segments). 
   * Cisco config mode support. 
   * Extended Authentication support. 
   * Management (clean-up) support of expired SA's. 
   * Added "exclude_local_ip_from_sa" and "exclude_remote_ip_from_sa"
     to allow full PKSoft client compatibility. 
   * Added "isakmp_life_seconds" and "ipsec_life_seconds"
     configuration attributes to better control the life-time of an
     SA.
