[Openswan Users] Openswan stopped working

[Karthik Krishnan]

Hi,

I have recently configured my laptop to connect to my office network in 
a typical roadwarrior connection...

Everything was working fine for a week and now suddenly it stopped 
working...and the auth.log says the following...

Quote
Oct 13 18:52:48 localhost pluto[17213]: "road" #1: initiating Main Mode
Oct 13 18:53:45 localhost pluto[17213]: initiate on demand from 
203.200.41.218:0 to 100.2.1.5:0 proto=0 state: fos_start because: acquire
UnQuote

I am unable to figure out anything from this msg...a lot of googling 
also did not give me anything useful...my ipsec.conf is as follows...

conn road
     left=%defaultroute             # Picks up our dynamic IP
     leftcert=/etc/ipsec.d/certs/karthik-cert.pem
     right=203.200.41.210   # Remote information
     rightsubnet=100.2.1.0/24        #
     rightcert=/etc/ipsec.d/certs/hostcert.pem
     pfs=yes
     dpdaction=clear
     auto=start


It would be of great help if someone can provide me some directions on this.
