I adopted this package and fixed the compilation issue. The package should be working and up to date with the main "ike" package now.

I'll disown this package, as I don't use it anymore.

@tomaskir please, push the appropiate patch. Thank you.

This is currently not buildable and requires the same fix as has been applied to the "ike" package in https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/commit/?h=ike&id=20d67b1e8643a25ba7040a5a62fb909071d9cdeb

@stramaz --> "Unable to build ike" seems a problem with ike package, not shrew itself... Anyway, I checked and ike builds fine for me. Can you report in https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/ike/ ?

Hi @figue, thank you for your answer. I use Checkpoint on my mac to connect to this corporate network I was talking about, so I guess I need this client as well. I'll try to build it tonight.

Anyone knows how to adopt my current shrew-vpn-client config to vpnc since I'm getting the same error as @v_mk when trying to build even ike manually?

chrishamm commented on 2019-03-20 19:26 (UTC)

Agreed, vpnc is what I've been using and it works well. No idea if it supports smartcards though

Hi @lordchaos. Did you check vpnc? In my case, I need Shrew because of Checkpoint support, but depending on the VPN, probably is better vpnc or any similar clients.

lordchaos commented on 2019-03-20 15:35 (UTC)

Hi,

The company I work for offers VPN access for Linux clients with the shrew client. However, I'm kinda hesitant to use it though as it seems the application has not had any update since many years. Is there a different VPN client that might support the same functionality? By the way, it needs to have support for smartcards.
