Hi. I have, hopefully, an easy question.  I'm trying to connect to my work's netgear VPN.  From the wiki I've hopefully set up my ipsec.conf, and I wanted to give it a try, but trying the tutorial "ipsec auto --up connection-name":

$ sudo ipsec auto --up firstTry
021 no connection named "firstTry"

but I thought I set it up such that there was a connection called firstTry:

$ more /etc/ipsec.conf
# right: remote
# left: local

version 2
config setup
    plutodebug=none
    plutostderrlog=/root/.kde/share/apps/kvpnc/ipsec.mciWizTry.log

conn firstTry
    authby=secret
    type=tunnel
 
    auto=start
    pfs=no
    aggrmode=yes
    keyexchange=ike
    ike=3des-sha1-modp1024
    esp=3des-sha1
    left=%defaultroute
    right=-work ip-
    leftid=-the remote FQDN on the router-
    rightid=-the local FQDN on the router-
    leftsubnet=192.168.7.0/24
    rightsubnet=192.168.9.0/24

What am I doing wrong?  

Also if anything in the .conf file looks wrong, it probably is, so feel free to criticize.
