[Openswan Users] Can't authenticate: no preshared key found

[Bartz, Joerg]

Hi Andrew
 
I don't know why this would make a difference, but I remeber I had this mistake once and it cost me quite some nerves to resolve this...
 
Regarding the espauthkey: Sorry, I misread your file somehow... or I was confused a bit...
 
best wihes

Hi,
 
    Mind explaining why this would make a difference?
    Also why would I not need the espauth key in my ipsec.conf file, as I thought this would have been the pre-shared key?
 
Thanks
 
Andrew

	Hi Andrew,
	 
	do you have a "Newline" -> pressed enter at the end of the line in the ipsec.secrets file? And I think you won't need espauthkey in the ipsec.conf
	 
	best wishes,
