I'm afraid I didn't have the time to peruse the conf files you included
but there is a complete training slide show on DHCP-over-IPSec in the
training section at http://iscs.sourceforge.net It is based upon
FreeS/WAN 1.98 and Sentinel 1.3 but I would imagine most principles
still apply.  Good luck - John
