1062: were successful as far as general IPsec and pre-shared key
1063: authentication went, OpenBSD interoperated with everyone, but due to
1064: time constraints we never got to test the certificate support
1065: appropriately. The results were presented later that fall at a
1066: conference in Stockholm.
