IPSec with MacOS X L2TP client?

eweri

Hello!

I just wonder if someone here managed to get a mobile client running MacOS X connect to pfsense via IPSec?

This is all i can find in the ppp.log (MacOS X):
…
Thu Dec 6 21:14:24 2007 : L2TP connecting to server '192.168.51.84' (192.168.51.84)...
Thu Dec 6 21:14:27 2007 : L2TP sent SCCRQ
Thu Dec 6 21:14:27 2007 : IPSec connection started
Thu Dec 6 21:14:27 2007 : IPSec phase 1 client started
Thu Dec 6 21:14:37 2007 : IPSec connection failed
...
(The IP-address is the WAN-Interface of the pfsense connected to my LAN)

And this is what I find at pfsense in /var/log/ipsec.log:
...
racoon: ERROR: not acceptable Identity Protection mode

There is also a strange thing, the L2TP-client in MacOS X wants a user, a password and psk to function properly, but if I understand it right pfsense just needs an identifier (equals user?) and the psk (same in MacOS X), right?

Every hint is welcome, bye

L2TP and IPSec are not the same, so I don't think it should work. I've tried similar with the Windows L2TP client and it wouldn't work.

L2TP is not supported at this time.

Thanks - that was not present that I can have IPsec without L2TP - I thought if you have IPsec you always have L2TP.
