By "new IPsec code" do you mean the code that's included in the Linux
2.5 tree?

Linux 2.5 IPsec uses the KAME tools from.  Source for the Linux port of
these tools (which will eventually, from what I hear, be rolled into the
KAME tree) is at http://sourceforge.net/projects/ipsec-tools/

Some docs can be found at http://www.kame.net/  I wrote some docs at
http://web.morgul.net/~frodo/docs/kame+freeswan_interop.html explaining
how to get the KAME tools (running on NetBSD at the time) to
interoperate over IPv4 with FreeS/WAN, though it was not the USAGI
FreeS/WAN.  It may help you.

I had very little trouble getting the Linux 2.5 IPsec implementation to
work.  Very little has changed from the original KAME implementation (at
least on the configuration side of things) so the KAME docs should be
accurate.

I apologize if this is not the IPsec implementation you're referring to,
though others may find this post useful anyway.
