Hi Again,

I am testing the roadwarriors connection. I am using openswan 2.3.0 on RedHat 8
with a winXP client. My server config:

version 2.0

config setup
        klipsdebug=none
        plutodebug=control
        interfaces=%defaultroute
        uniqueids=yes

conn %default
        keyingtries=1
        disablearrivalcheck=no
        authby=secret

conn roadwarrior
        left=216.204.182.20
        leftnexthop=%defaultroute
        leftsubnet=192.168.0.0/255.255.255.0
        right=%any
        authby=secret
        auto=add

include /etc/ipsec.d/no_oe.conf

My ipsec.secret

216.204.182.20 %any : PSK "testconnection"

When I connect with my XP client get these log messages

Attribute OAKLEY_AUTHENTICATION_METHOD


So looking at this it seems there is a problem matching %any (0.0.0.0). I tested
that theory by replacing %any with the ip of my XP laptop. I got in no problem.
Is there something wrong with my config/secret? I assume the %any is there to
match any incoming request since I am not going to know the address of the client.

Thanks

 Glenn
