[Openswan Users] Config file Question.

I get something like this from whack

000 "XXX":   IKE algorithms wanted: BLOWFISH(7)_000-SHA1(2)-2, flags=strict
000 "XXX":   IKE algorithms found:  BLOWFISH(7)_128-SHA1(2)_160-2,
000 "XXX":   ESP algorithms wanted: AES(12)_000-SHA1(2), flags=strict
000 "XXX":   ESP algorithms loaded: AES(12)_000-SHA1(2), flags=strict

What am I doing wrong?
