Hi All, I finally did get it working. I believe the most significant issue was the naming of the links. After regenerating the keys(again) and renaming the VPN connection on both sides to the same name the PC finally made a Security Association(SA).

FYI, 'ipsec auto --up con-name' was most usefull troubleshooting command......... -----Original Message----- From: Florin [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, February 10, 2003 9:32 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [Cooker-firewall] configuring MNF - MNF VPN <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: > I'm at about the end of my rope. > > I've tried multiple things and still no luck. > > On the left, I created CA, gen'd certs for both sides and configured ipsec > server. > > I then moved keys to right side system, set up as server and get error > starting IPSEC about connection not there. > I also configured as client. > > I'm tried and frazzled.. can anyone help?? > > Thanks, Doug. -- Florin http://www.mandrakesoft.com http://people.mandrakesoft.com/~florin/
