Linux IPSec VPN and Cisco Firewall VPN

I'm running a Slackware 9.1 box as a firewall, upgraded to kernel 2.6.4.
I need to create a VPN to another site that is using a Cisco Firewall
with VPN support (not sure exactly what model/revision). Does this work?
How well does it work? Are there any quirks I should expect to run into?
If anyone has any good docs or some pointers to get me started I would
appreciate it. I would like to use the native kernel IPSec support over
FreeS/WAN if at all possible.

Thanks,
~Brad Hook

Re: Linux IPSec VPN and Cisco Firewall VPN

Cisco maintains a linux VPN client for their firewalls, I have gone this
route and it is fairly straight forward. Being there own product it is
well supported.
