[Openswan Users] ikeping working?

[Michael Williamson]

Hello,

I am trying to figure out why I can't initiate an ipsec tunnel (I never 
get through Phase I) and I am trying to do an ikeping and see what's 
going on...

Here is what I type:

 > ipsec ikeping --ikeport 2020 --nat-t --verbose 24.97.115.82
And I get back a:
Sending packet to 24.97.115.83/500

immediately, no 10 second timeout, no verboseness, no nothing.   And 
nothing appears to go out on the network (at least, nothing that 
tcpdump, snoop, and ethereal will admit).

 > ipsec --version
Linux Openswan U2.4.4/K2.6.15-26-386 (netkey)
See `ipsec --copyright' for copyright information.

Couldn't find anything in /var/log to indicate a problem.... Am I 
suffering from cockpit error here?  Does ikeping work?

Thanks,

-Mike
