Oh, so the VPN tunnel isn't working, either?

Are you behind a NAT gateway by any chance? Do you have MS's NAT patches
applied? (Just shooting in the dark here; that's an odd problem you're
having.)

Have you tried a simpler ipsec.conf on the Windows side, that just
contains:

conn roadwarrior-net
        left=%any
        right=x.x.x.x
        rightsubnet=10.0.0.0/255.255.255.0
        rightca="C=, S=, L=, O=, CN=, E="
        network=auto
        auto=start
        pfs=yes
