Most noteable new features:
New Pluto 1.70 features (OS/2 only version):
* Windows 2000 IPSec interoperability.
* Cisco PIX and Cisco IOS VPN compatibility.
* Nortel Extranet Switch 2.6 (or newer) interoperability.
New IPSec 1.70 features:
* New SHS tool for better monitoring of SA negotiations.
* IPSEC.CFG file contents no longer case sensitive.
* SA's using dynamic passwords and extended authentication will
now cause InJoy to pop-up a password prompt (requires NEW InJoy
version).
* Stand alone IPSec clients with an external IP address can now
use NAT to convert the external IP address to a static "inner"
IP address (e.g. within the 192.168.x.x or 10.x.x.x segments).
* Cisco config mode support.
* Extended Authentication support.
* Management (clean-up) support of expired SA's.
* Added "exclude_local_ip_from_sa" and "exclude_remote_ip_from_sa"
to allow full PKSoft client compatibility.
* Added "isakmp_life_seconds" and "ipsec_life_seconds" configuration attributes to better control the life-time of an SA.
