Oh! That is the only messages I got. And Yes I am using netkey. Is it due to the fact that I did not configure any tunnel interface yet? I will assume that "service ipsec restart" will create the needed tunnel interface for me. But it seems not.

You only show the first packet going out. That does not mean it is working at all.

If using netkey, no interfaces will appear. If using klips, it will already exist
before you start.
