Hi Geoffrey,
The first thing I'd check is to make sure that you have disabled the Microsoft Virtual WiFi Miniport adapter (it's in the same place you find the wired and wireless adapter configs). This can conflict with the Shrew client on Windows 7. After disabling it, re-install the Shrew client just to ensure it will work. Assuming the problem is not caused by the Virtual WiFi adapter, It appears from the log that the client is not getting a response from the gateway. Is it possible for you to check the log on the gateway to see if the gateway is even getting a request from your client? Look for something like the following in the NetScreen events log where x.x.x.x is the PUBLIC IP of your laptop: IKE x.x.x.x Phase 1: Responder starts AGGRESSIVE mode negotiations. If it appears, then look at the next couple messages to see what part of the phase1 is failing. If it does not appear, then perhaps something is preventing your client's traffic from reaching the gateway, maybe a firewall or something? > From: [email protected] > To: [email protected] > Date: Tue, 11 Jan 2011 10:21:51 -0500 > Subject: [vpn-help] VPN Client 2.1.7 and Netscreen NS25 > > I've setup client and gateway as suggested in documentation for Netscreen > devices and can't get a positive result.
