Hi Paul, thanks for the reply.



About bug #1004, I'm not getting this error:  "cannot respond to IPsec SA request
because no connection is known for......." like said in https://gsoc.xelerance.com/issues/1004

I tried
with transport mode, but I got the same messages, except in /var/log/secure,
where IPSec SA changed from "tunnel" to "transport"

IPsec SA
established transport mode {ESP/NAT=>0x74cb12e6........

Finally,
I change my ipsec.conf file like you said. I used rightsubnet=vhost:%priv, but nothing change. The
logs still the same.
