      Jun 9 22:58:08 racoon: ERROR: fatal NO-PROPOSAL-CHOSEN notify messsage, phase1 should be deleted.

        Looks like they can't agree on a proposal. Are you sure you have the same encryption and hash types set on both ends of the tunnel?

        Double check everything in the Phase 2 section on both sides.

          It was working but it just quit working.  I was doing some work on the firewall when it quit.  Do you think that just recreating it would solve the problem.

            If a tunnel just quits, it is likely that it lost contact with the other side. Usually going to Status > Services and restarting racoon is enough to make it start again.

            If that fixes it, it may be related to an issue we've been trying to solve in the 1.2.3-RC snapshots with Dead Peer Detection.

              that's most likely it.  When he restarts his firewall it will come up but then drops  few days later.  I hope you all will figure it out soon.
