Hi,

            I had a working VPN server before I updated. I had openswan
2.4.4 and pppd 2.4.2 with kernel 2.6.11-gentoo-r5. I then updated to latest
versions openswan 2.4.13-r2, l2tpd 0.70_pre20031121 and pppd 2.4.4 on gentoo
with kernel 2.6.11-gentoo-r5. 

 

After the upgrades I am not able to communicate through tunnel and it closes
the tunnel.

Tunnel establishes but no traffic flows from the VPN server to the VPN
Client Gateway. I am seeing ESP packets coming from VPN Client's Gateway to
VPN Server. And after 1.1 minutes pppd terminates connection.

 

Here are the logs I see just before terminating connection.
