[vpn-devel] Always create a NONE policy to a peer

Hello everybody,

I have ran into a situation with a Cisco ASA and Shrew v2.1.5 where VPN
gateway is in a split-tunneled network, e.g.:

split-tunnel network: A.B.C.0/24
and the VPN gateway IP: A.B.C.1

The client seems to connect to it but no data can pass and it soon
disconnects (a timeout I guess).

I have tried to solve the problem on my own, and came up with solution
always to add a NONE policy by setting "tunnel->force_all = true"
(attached a patch against linux source v2.1.5-release).

Now while it works for me, I am not sure if this is a correct way to fix
the problem. Does any one know if this could lead to a any problems in
other setups? If yes, what would be a correct solution? If no, could
this be added to the source?

Best regards
