I've done this...

I think the major issue was placing nat_traversal=yes in the conn
section rather than the config.

I expected that this would be a conn setting as it is only needed for
specific connections.

Strange that I didn't get any errors when restarting ipsec when I did
this.

Thanks again to all,

Lewis
