[Openswan Users] no quick mode - received MODECFG message when in state STATE_MAIN_R3, and we aren't xauth client

Hi,

Seems like the client is sending a MODECFG message and expecting you to 
lease an IP address to it. You can either change the settings at the 
client or change settings at your end.

Best Regards,
