FreeS/WAN

FreeS/WAN, for Free Secure Wide-Area Networking, was a free software project, which implemented a reference version of the IPsec network security layer for Linux and other Unix-like operating systems. The project goal of ubiquitous opportunistic encryption of Internet traffic was not realized, although it did contribute to general Internet encryption. The project was founded by John Gilmore, and administered for most of its duration by Hugh Daniel. Technical lead for the project was Henry Spencer.

The final FreeS/WAN version 2.06 was released on 22 April 2004. The earlier version 2.04 was forked to form two projects, Openswan and strongSwan.
