[IPCop-devel] OpenS/WAN rekeying troubles with Cisco Routers

[bruno\.carnazzi <bru...@la...>]

   Hi,

I'm using IPCop v1.4rc4 for making VPN with a Cisco 1720
Router (IOS 12.1, 3DES supported). Well, I use PSK for
authentification between them and it normally works
(connection status goes to "OPEN", ping is ok). Super. But
randomly, the connection is silently dropped (still "OPEN" but
no ping). When I look to OpenS/WAN web site the said, quote :
"Some other implementations will close a connection with
FreeS/WAN after some time. This may be a problem with rekey
lifetimes. Please see this tip[link] and this
workaround[link]. But the links to the freeswan mailing list
are broken
(http://lists.freeswan.org/archives/users/2003-October/msg00293.html)
! Does somebody know something about that ? I've configured
the Cisco Router in using 3DES/MD5 and set timeouts to IPCop
defaults. VPN setting on my IPCop are the defaults (3DES/AES,
MD5/SHA1...).

Hope this will sound clear to someone...

Best Regards.
