Pablo,
No, 'policy' is part of the command:

Like I said, we need to find the equivalent of 'apt-get policy' in
yum-language, and it should tell us more about what versions of the
kernel and of the freeswan package are available.
Johnny has gone further, though, so that stuff up there isn't necessary.

I think we need to rebuild the openswan kernel module for 2.4.21-15.0.4.
I'll bet one missing part of the DAR system is that it doesn't know to
build new kernel-module-foo when there's a new kernel available. That's
okay, as it's a hard problem to solve, and it just means we need to (get
him to) rebuild them.
Hmm, let me see if my chrooted environment will build them. It's not
always perfect, but I can't boot any other machines to wb right now.
I'll get a copy of the module SRPM too, massage them to build outside of
DAR, and see if it will build an openswan for 2.4.21-15.0.4.
