Checking for IPsec support in kernel [FAILED]
Checking for RSA private key (/etc/ipsec.secrets) [FAILED]
ipsec showhostkey: file `/etc/ipsec.secrets' does not exist
Checking that pluto is running [FAILED]
whack: Pluto is not running (no "/var/run/pluto.ctl")
Checking for 'ip' command [OK]
Checking for 'iptables' command [OK]

Opportunistic Encryption DNS checks:

You probably need to install the ipsec RPM. Check the URL above, it talks about it too.

Hope this helps.
