Hi,

I have trouble establishing a VPN between my Linux FW and a Checkpoint FW.

Situation:
Ordinary Net-to-net connection. I have plenty of these already installed so I 
wonder what happend to this one. I do not have direct access to the 
Checkpoint now, but the problem is urgent.

OpenSWAN: U2.2.0/K2.6.11.4-21.11-default (native) from SuSE 9.3
Checkpoint NG R54 HFA417

If I start the connection with "ipsec auto --up <connection>" I see two 
packets on the line with port 500. The answer is:
muc3:~ # ipsec auto --up connection
104 "connection" #29: STATE_MAIN_I1: initiate
003 "connection" #29: ignoring informational payload, type NO_PROPOSAL_CHOSEN
003 "connection" #29: received and ignored informational message

Same in my logfiles.

My configuration is:
config setup
        nat_traversal=yes
        overridemtu=1400
        virtual_private=%v4:192.168.188.1.0/24

conn %default
        leftrsasigkey=%cert
        rightrsasigkey=%cert

conn conenction
        type=tunnel
        auth=esp
        authby=secret
        pfs=no
        left=a.b.c.104
        leftsubnet=d.e.f.0/24
        leftnexthop=a.b.c.97
        right=g.h.i.1
        rightnexthop=g.h.i.80
        rightsubnet=j.k.l.0/8
        auto=add

Checkpoint config:
AES and 3DES, MD5 and SHA1 enabled, no pfs.

Any idea what might be wrong?
