In case the IP is not cleared download your config.xml from diagnostics>backup/restore, manually remove the item and upload it again. But first Do what Scott asked for please.

Same over here. I am to dumb to get IPsec to work… :-[

I got some Firewall block messages from TCP Port 500 in the logs.
My static site is really knocked down on ports - do I have to open up something special here?

Needless to say, the tunnel is not coming up and I cannot ping a host on the other side.
Both pfSenses are 1.0.1 Snapshot 2006-DEC-23 with PPPoE ADSL.
Office has a static IP, home a dynamic one. NO SAD or SPD entries on static side and only SPD on dynamic end where I also get this:

Diagnostics: System logs: IPSEC VPN
Jan 4 10:48:10 racoon: ERROR: fatal parse failure (1 errors)
Jan 4 10:48:10 racoon: ERROR: /var/etc/racoon.conf:2: "500" parse error

Does the "500" parse error relate to a port issue??

Ill try to reinstall pfsense. Maybe that helps.

jahonix · Jan 8, 2007, 2:44 PM

Any news here?

I still get the parse error and have no idea where to look.
Installation is vanilla 1.0.1 with current snapshot, 1.0.1-SNAPSHOT-12-28-2006, built on Thu Jan 4 13:07:12 EST 2007
I added squid, (freeradius…), NTP, nmap (...) and mc.

IPsec install was from Hoba's tutorial.
What firewall ruleset do you recommend for IPsec use? UDP 500 and EAP on WAN or gateway's LAN address?
That's not covered by the tutorial AFAIK.

Greatly appreciate your help!

artifact · Jan 8, 2007, 2:35 PM

I reinstalled all system and now its works. I think that's a bug.
