      Will IPSEC still be available (aka. can i still make an ipsec VPN tunnel) if I have "patched" the pcscd "out".

        yes

        Pre-2.7.2/23.09: Only install packages for your version, or risk breaking it. Select your branch in System/Update/Update Settings.
        When upgrading, allow 10-15 minutes to restart, or more depending on packages and device speed.

          It's disabled by default in 2.6 (using this same method) and that is now the current release!

              I've been running 2.6 for months, on numerous boxes, no significant issues.

              There seems to be some potential problems if you're running in Hyper-V. Some users are seeing throughput reduced (significantly) in VMs there.
