Many thanks for your help...

Switched on PFS at both ends and getting much better error messages:

003 "someone" #64: received Vendor ID payload [Dead Peer Detection]
003 "someone" #64: Can't authenticate: no preshared key found for
`me at localid.org' and `id at remoteid.org'.  Attribute
OAKLEY_AUTHENTICATION_METHOD
003 "someone" #64: no acceptable Oakley Transform
214 "someone" #64: STATE_MAIN_I1: NO_PROPOSAL_CHOSEN

Although still getting the following when doing an ipsec auto --add someone:

003 ike string error: hash_alg not found, enc_alg="3des", auth_alg="sha1",
modp="modp1024"

Using openswan version:

Linux Openswan U2.2.0/K2.4.27-3-386 (native)

Thanks

Dale

PS: Ive ordered the book, should arrive in 4 days!

I added this to our test server and did: ipsec auto --add someone:

Feb 26 23:29:56 testserver pluto[1879]: added connection description
"someone"

What version of openswan is this? You can try using "sha" instead of "sha1"
for some older versions.

> PFS: Off

Your openswan config is using PFS. If possible you should change it on the
other end as well. If you can't, add pfs=no and leave out the modpgroup
setting.
