Currently you would need to patch a kernel source tree, there are no
kernel rpms with NAT-T built in for RH9. I *think* the FC1 kernels are
already doing NAT-T, and they usually works very well on RH9 (at least
there has been noone with contrary exeprience up to now).

I suggest to install kernel and openswan-kmdl from FC1 and test
whether you are already with NAT-T. And please let me also know, if
this was true :)

FC1 is the acronym for Fedora Core 1, the consumer level successor of
Red Hat Linux 9. It is a bit more complicated than that, but in
general most people using RH9 for private use would use FC1 and Red
Hat tries to persuade commercial users to move towards the Red Hat
Enterprise Linux products (RHEL).

I thought Fedora Core 1 was only in testing mode (waiting for Core 2 and
2.6 kernel)
Can I use FC1 in a production environment ?
(If I wan't to implement VPN, it's for security.)

If I understood well, I download :

the kernel for my P133
kernel-2.4.22-1.2174.nptl_37.rhfc1.at.i586.rpm
<http://download.atrpms.net/production/packages/fedora-1-i386/atrpms/kernel-2.4.22-1.2174.nptl_37.rhfc1.at.i586.rpm>

openswan
openswan-2.0.0-2_dr3.rhfc1.at.i386.rpm
<http://download.atrpms.net/testing/packages/fedora-1-i386/atrpms/openswan-2.0.0-2_dr3.rhfc1.at.i386.rpm>
openswan-kmdl-2.4.22-1.2174.nptl-2.1.0-3_rc1.rhfc1.at.i586.rpm
<http://download.atrpms.net/testing/packages/fedora-1-i386/atrpms/openswan-kmdl-2.4.22-1.2174.nptl-2.1.0-3_rc1.rhfc1.at.i586.rpm>

+ atrpms packages

correct

FC1 is well released some months ago and FC2 is currently being tested.

It depends, most people find FC1 as good as RH9 and better, but you
have no support to buy from RH (in case you need it).

Yes, that would be a valid combination (you really have i586?
e.g. Pentium I or K6? Otherwise go i686 or athlon)
