>Description:
I have been unable to figure out how to configure racoon(8) from
the documentation provided. In particular:
* The differences between the identifier types (fqdn, user_fqdn)
and what they mean to the remote system is not documented.
* The location of the certificate file is not documented.
* The format of the pre-shared-key file is not well defined. (An
example would help.)
* It is unclear whether I need a `remote' stanza, a `policy'
stanza, or both. I get the *impression* that `remote'
corresponds to SAD entries, and `policy' corresponds to SPD
entries.
* The documentation is all in Japanglish.
This is making it difficult to configure racoon(8), and thus
difficult to use IPsec.
>How-To-Repeat:
Try to configure racoon(8).

If racoon(8) was removed from NetBSD, why is this PR suspended?

because racoon (or some other IKE implementation) is likely to be
added back to NetBSD some day; when this occurs, the PR should be
reanalyzed (and closed if the IKE implementation fixes the problem).

any suggestions on fixing grammar? all racoon(8) developers are
non-native English speaker.
