Description Jim Wildman 2016-12-01 21:33:13 UTC 
Description of problem:

Almost the entire content of section 4.7 of the Security guide is a copy of the relevant sections of the libreswan howtos.  I understand now that the libreswan author is also a Red Hat person, but there is no attribution in either direction.

For example, see
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/7/html-single/Security_Guide/index.html#Subnet_Extrusion_Using_Libreswan

vs

https://libreswan.org/wiki/Subnet_extrusion
