You cannot do this. A subnet cannot live at two places at once.

Well, tell me. Where should pings for 192.168.1.1 go to? Your connection
claims that network lives behind the left gateway AND behind the right gateway.

I am surprised openswan allows this configuration. Perhaps we should ensure
such connections are rejected in the future. Michael?
