Have you read the companion webpage:
http://www.jacco2.dds.nl/networking/freeswan-panther.html

You need to add:

   leftprotoport=17/1701
   rightprotoport=17/%any

The %any parameter is included in the X.509 patch (version 0.9.38 or higher
for FreeS/WAN 1.99, and version 1.5.3 or higher for FreeS/WAN 2.04 / 2.05).
I don't know about Openswan but Strongswan 2.0.0 and higher also contains
this patch.

Shouldn't this be auto=add?
