Hi,

The 1.4 release will not allow the TCP_MD5SIG option to be set on a
socket.

However a slight modification to etc/templates/bgp.tp will allow it to
be enabled and the function comm_set_tcpmd5 in libcomm/comm_sock.c would
need to be modified to set the option on Linux.

The actual setting of the password would have to done separately using
Linux IPsec tools.
