The same thing happened to me a couple of months ago when I tried to 
bring up cipe-1.6.0pre1-patched under FC2.  I then reverted to FC1, 
removed the 2.6 kernel patch to lebf.c, and recompiled cipe-1.6.0pre1.  
It works fine talking to a cipe-1.5.4 machine, so the problem appears to 
be in the interface to the 2.6 kernel.  I really hope this problem can 
be resolved since cipe is still the most attractive alternative I know 
of for implementing a simple VPN under linux.
