[Openswan Users] Yet Another EC2 Config Debug

Alright, it seems as though we now have a proper handshake and connection
between the two locations.  Unfortunately, I can't get any packets/traffic
sent from one side to another.  Any requests don't seem to even be hitting
the client firewall, even though the connection goes through.  So, let me
start with a basic clarification:

When we set up the connection, the request to the client came from 10.5.5.5
(the created encrypted domain), and not the elastic(static) ip.  Should the
firewall rules on the client side been setup for 10.5.5.5 and not the
elastic ip?

I think the original expectation was that the traffic would be coming from
the Elastic IP, and that's what was configured on the client end.

Otherwise, from the auth.log:

pluto[7676]: NAT-Traversal: Trying new style NAT-T
pluto[7676]: NAT-Traversal: ESPINUDP(1) setup failed for new style NAT-T
family IPv4 (errno=19)
pluto[7676]: NAT-Traversal: Trying old style NAT-T

Is the NAT-T not functioning properly, or is this fine?

Finally, any reason why there seems to be no traffic getting through to the
client firewall?  UDP ports are set up properly through the AWS security
groups.
