Some starting documents

[Zenny]

Thanks Dick for information.

About the first mandos server-client pair I meant the mandos server
which also tries to authenticate as client with each other, I
installed mandos sever and clients in both of them and copied the
output of 'mandos-keygen --passphrase' to the server's
/etc/mandos/clients.conf yet it does not authenticate, yet asks for
the passphrase in console?

Tried to execute the following in the client console (as stated in
http://bzr.recompile.se/loggerhead/mandos/trunk/annotate/head:/debian/mandos-client.README.Debian),
but nothing happens even for hours.

#/usr/lib/mandos/plugins.d/mandos-client \
> --pubkey=/etc/keys/mandos/pubkey.txt \
> --seckey=/etc/keys/mandos/seckey.txt; echo

What did I miss? What other configuration changes that I need to make
to make it work?

Thanks!
