Hi

Env:
203.194.231.42 (redhat)  <---> 203.166.672.230 (ciscovpn) --- 10.30.20.0/24

/etc/ipsec.conf
conn hosttohost
        left=203.194.231.42
        leftsubnet=203.194.231.42/32
        right=203.166.672.23
        rightsubnet=10.30.20.0/24
        type=tunnel
        auto=add
        auth=esp
        pfs=no
        authby=secret
        ikelifetime=8h
        esp=3des-md5-168


Problem:
VPN established
But unable to ping 10.30.20.x


I found something under /var/log/secure, which showed the redhat IP with 
wrong subnet.
/*

*/I have tried to correct by |"ipsec auto --add |hosttohost|"| command, 
according to the page, but the result remains unchange.

Anyone has idea?
