[Openswan Users] Different experience with OpenWRT

[John Joseph]

Hi 
  I am trying to test  OpenSwan on  OpenWRT for PSK
authentication, I am using the latest RC6 . I
installed  OpenSwan and l2tpd  using   OpenWrt Admin
Console.
                      Now  replicated  the same 
“ipsec.conf” , “chap-secrets”,”
ppp/options.l2tpd.client”, ”ipsec.secrets” which  I
had done for CentOS successfully 
                                 While rying to
connect , it gets connect and gets disconnected  the
same time . my message file shows the following logs

###############

####################              

                      I am trying to find the reason
why this is happening. The configuration files were
tested successfully on CentOS and was able to connect
to VPN.


Also I had found that after we start “ipsec” . In 
openWrt , I can find a interface  “ipsec0”, while in
CenOS , this interface “ipsec0” was not there  afte
the service started.

the ifconfig on openWrt , gives the result 

root at techwrt:/etc# ifconfig

                     Guidance requested
