Hi there. Installed openswan, and followed the instructions :) . It
looks like tunnel is estabilished now:

192.168.10.3 internal linux box ip (and default gateway for the natted
workstations)
192.168.100.2 internal cisco pix ip (and default gateway for the natted
workstations)

conn milan                       
        left=xxx.xxx.xxx.90    public ip linux box         
        leftnexthop=xxx.xxx.xxx.65    default gateway linux

        right=xxx.xxx.xxx.130      public ip cisco 
        rightsubnet=192.168.100.0/24    network behind cisco

        esp=3des-md5-96                

The firewall on the linuxbox is natting the 192.168.10.x network and
accepting anything coming from 192.168.100.x, I added udp port 500 to
INPUT and OUTPUT chains in iptables, but still cannot ping (even from
other workstations) or reach a web page on the other network. Anything
else I am missing or should be looking for? 

>Remember you will need to allow the ipsec interface in your firewall
How do I do this? 

Thanks for all your help, really appreciate this.
