Sorry, thinking about this a bit further, I forgot that the new Android client 
is built against latest libfko code, and unfortunately it doesn't have an 
option to support the legacy encryption mode.  I'm hoping to get this added, 
but not sure when it will happen.  Any chance you could upgrade to any release 
after 2.5?  If so, the server would support SPA packets from the Android client.

Thanks,

Mike
