[Frédéric Roudaut <frederic.roudaut@xxxxxxx>]

Hi,

as requested  here is a patch  in order to take into account  Encryption 
and Authentication keys for ESP in hexa. 
You only have to write your key with 0x first. In this case if the key 
is not in 8-bit unit, it will be considered as starting with a "0" (4 bits).
Excepted this case, the key should be completely written, even if it 
starts with "0x00".

Nevertheless, if the box contains a key with white spaces before "0x",  
it will be taken into account. Ie if the ESP preference contains  
"    0xffffff",  it will not be considered  as an hexadecimal key (4 
white spaces before 0x). I do not think it is a problem but please tell 
me if it is, I will correct this.

Moreover I noticed an editorial issue in the Author files ;-). IPsec 
should be written like this and not IP-sec.
could you please update this ?

best regards,

ps : in attachment, you will also get some examples for using 
Hexadecimal keys (preference and capture files, IPsec policy for setkey).
ps2 : sorry for the off-by-one errors ;-(
