I will attempt to load the patch today and rerun the test. It is very reproduceable. I've been trying to read the diff view on kernel.org to see about any updates, but the server keeps giving me nasty messages: internal server error, too many users, etc. I prefer to read the diff before patching from bk to see if anything else is impacted.

We'll give it a go this afternoon. As a backup, I've successfully installed and tested OpenVPN, though it doesn't provide connectivity to other systems (read Cisco) running IPSec.

I'll keep all informed as to the progress.

Thanks for the quick response! I sent a bug report to Redmond about 7 years ago and am still awaiting a reply ;-)

Quite likely.

Bill, can you please try the latest BK tree and see if you can
still reproduce the hang?
The patch is not in Linus's tree yet, so you need to apply it
yourself.

Regards
Patrick
