Here are some suggestions:

- There is a Howto by Martin Koeppe about such a setup:
   http://koeppe-net.de/l2tp-howto.txt
   It could use a bit of an update but you'll probably get the gist of it.

- NAT forwarding after IPsec currently does not work on 26sec, but there
   are experimental ipsec hook netfilter patches by Patrick McHardy.

- Are you using leftnexthop= on the IPsec server?

- Running tcpdump on the VPN server itself is not entirely reliable
   when 26sec is used. A seperate system for sniffing packets is better.

- Do L2TP packets arrive at the L2TP server at all? Does it send
   responses back? Does it have a default route to the IPsec server?
