[Openswan Users] UPDATE: Tunnel up, can ping, cannot connect!! :S

["Ing. Rodrigo Méndez"]

Update to this question. (I think with this update this question should become a simple one for experts)

I disabled iptables on my server xxx.xxx.xxx.1 and the connection is ESTABLISHED. This means iptables is stopping the SYN|ACK packages from zzz.zzz.zzz.3 somehow.

This are the iptables rules I'm applying:

iptables -I OUTPUT -p udp --dport 500 -j ACCEPT
iptables -I INPUT -p udp --dport 500 -j ACCEPT
iptables -I INPUT -p udp --dport 4500 -j ACCEPT
iptables -I OUTPUT -p udp --dport 4500 -j ACCEPT
iptables -I INPUT -p 50 -j ACCEPT
iptables -I OUTPUT -p 50 -j ACCEPT

I think this is the last step to have mi first fully functional OpenSWAN VPN. Please help! :D

Thank you!
RM

The interesting part of this is that I see the ESP traffic coming out of xxx.1, the admin of the Juniper Concentrator (yyy.2) can see my traffic coming through and also the guy in the zzz.3 box (private lan).
