Re: [issue696] IPSEC recommendation

Hi,

I am the author of the code so I can change the
license if necessary.

I doubt you'd be able to use the CipherPacket source
code in C12 for IPSEC, because it is there to
encrypt/decrypt the private-key, and not for IPSEC.

But you can use the CipherPacket algorithm in IPSEC.
When I sent in the bug-report I was really
recommending DFLY use the CipherPacket algorithm in
IPSEC.
