[Openswan Users] Open Swan -> DSL -> Linksys

Hi,

I'm trying to connect Openswan to a Linksys VPN router. I have it working fine 
with once site that has the Linksys VPN connected directly to the Internet 
with a public IP address.

I am now trying to connect a second Linksys VPN but the second site has an odd 
configuration. The DSL provider provides a problematic all-in-one modem/
router. The DSL modem/router has a static public IP address, on the inside it 
has an address of 192.168.2.1, the Linksys VPN is plugged directly into it 
and has an IP of 192.168.2.2. The DSL modem/router is configured to expose 
192.168.2.2 as a virtual host so all incoming traffic to the public IP will 
be redirected to the Linksys VPN. 

This is the entry that I am using in my ipsec.conf:

conn remote_to_local
        right=123.123.23.2
        rightid=192.168.2.2
        rightsubnet=192.168.50.0/24
        rightnexthop=192.168.2.1
        left=155.155.55.2
        leftsubnet=192.168.0.0/24
        leftnexthop=155.155.55.1
        keyexchange=ike
        ikelifetime=240m
        keylife=60m
        pfs=yes
        compress=no
        authby=secret
        auto=add

The tunnel comes up but I cannot move any traffic across it. Can anyone help 
me out?

Thanks,
Pete
