Aaron,

Thanks for your reply. Xauth may be an issue, but I don't get that far. 
When I try to connect I get through phase 1 and then I get messages like 
these...

Warning - VPN IKE -     Received unencrypted packet while crypto active
Warning - VPN IKE -     Received notify: PAYLOAD_MALFORMED

I've spent some time with SonicWall tech support and they think the 
problem is NAT-T related. I've read all the docs I can find on NAT-T 
support for Ubuntu and Debian, and as far as I can tell, my kernel does 
not have it. Do you have the full kernel installed? Can you run make 
xconfig and check if NAT-T support is available?

Thanks again,
Rick Knight
