Please can any one shine light on what I've done wrong/not done.

I've installed freeswan as per how to. All went ok.

Added network (without router ip). All went ok.

Resaved IPSEC and rebooted both servers, restarted Freeswan with /etc/rc.d/init.d/ipsec restart but I can not get tunnel to work.

SME5 Server one. Two NIC one with fixed IP using TELE2 (samba update applied)
192.168.253.95 255.255.255.0


SME5 Server two. Two NIC one with fixed IP via BT ADSL line (no samba update)
192.168.254.99 255.255.255.0

In both cases have tried using external IP for router and actual router address just to make sure. I can still vpn using Win 2K client to both boxes but no tunnel.

I am a loss what to try next.

When I said I could VPN using Win2k client I was running from Home through SME5 with no IPSEC running.  When I try to VPN at work using win2k clinet through server two to access server one it does not work.  It also block FTP

When you copied the public key did you just drag the mouse down over the line or right across to the end? If you dragged it down you mayhave caught a line feed?? Have you tried upgrading to 1.91 on both boxes? You would need to post the relevant syslog outout to have any chance of solving this (and even then it would be tricky)
