Hi there

I have been looking on the web and your mailing list but have not gotten any real answers to my problem yet.

I get the following error message when trying to start up my IPSec Tunnel. I am trying to do this with PSK. Now most of the links I got on the net states that if it stucks at STATE_QUICK_I1, it is because the subnets are incorrect. I have checked my etc/ipsec.d/policy/ files and they look fine.

WHAT are the common causes of OpenSwan stuck at STATE_QUICK_I1

My ipsec.conf file looks as follows

include /etc/ipsec.d/examples/no_oe.conf

# basic configuration
config setup
        interfaces="ipsec0=eth0"
        klipsdebug=all
        plutodebug=all

        left=10.3.1.9                              # Local ip
        leftsubnet=10.3.1.0/24   #Local network
        right=10.100.10.111             #Remote ip address
        rightsubnet=155.236.47.0/24         # Remote network

My ipsec.secrets looks as follows

10.3.1.9 10.100.10.111 : PSK "test"

Got this from my barf -- Does this mean that the Secret Keys does not match as I have set them both to "test"
