Hello list, First off, may I say that Monowall rocks. I am very pleased with all the hard work that has been put into this product. I currently use it as our firewall and also to establish vpn links with vendors. Operation has been flawless and setup has been for the most part easy. I have set up two constant vpn links with other vpn gateways and they were no problem to set up. I am in the midst of attempting to set up vpn's for a few mobile users, and have run across a bit of a problem that I am trying to understand. At the moment, I don't know if it is merely the fact that I am on cable broadband, which limits me seriously, or if this is something having to do with how monowall is set up. I downloaded and installed the GreenBow VPN Client and set it up with all required parameters for my mobile vpn setup. I am currently getting the following error when trying to connect to the vpn tunnel: 202913 Default (SA SbcVpnPhase1-P1) SEND phase 1 Main Mode [SA] [VID] [VID] [VID] 202913 Default (SA SbcVpnPhase1-P1) RECV phase 1 Main Mode [SA] [VID] 202913 Default (SA SbcVpnPhase1-P1) SEND phase 1 Main Mode [KEY_EXCH] [NONCE] 202913 Default (SA SbcVpnPhase1-P1) RECV phase 1 Main Mode [KEY_EXCH] [NONCE] [VID] 202913 Default (SA SbcVpnPhase1-P1) SEND phase 1 Main Mode [HASH] [ID] 202920 Default (SA SbcVpnPhase1-P1) SEND phase 1 Main Mode [HASH] [ID] 202929 Default (SA SbcVpnPhase1-P1) SEND phase 1 Main Mode [HASH] [ID] 202940 Default (SA SbcVpnPhase1-P1) SEND phase 1 Main Mode [HASH] [ID] 202953 Default (SA SbcVpnPhase1-P1) SEND phase 1 Main Mode [HASH] [ID] 203008 Default (SA SbcVpnPhase1-P1) SEND phase 1 Main Mode [HASH] [ID] 203008 Default transport_send_messages: giving up on message 00CAD198 Obviously there is a problem in phase 1 with sending the ID. What I don't quite know is why. Does IPSEC (and hence monowall) require attempting to open a connection back to my laptop? If so, then I'm never going to get this working, but if not, then where should I look next? I am in the midst of going through all the documentation I can find on GreenBow's site, but as there is precious little that actually goes into detail, I'm a bit lost. All pointers gladly appreciated. Thank you, Dale Hirt |
