Cannot connect to remote Cisco VPN from behind pfsense firewall

[cvandyck]

Hi

Am running a machine behind the pfsense firewall.  Need to connect to a remote client Cisco/IPSec VPN, but am having some trouble doing it.  The client reports that it establishes a TCP connection to the remote server, but then freezes on

Contacting the security gateway at xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

It eventually fails, saying

Secure VPN Connection terminated locally by the client
Reason 412: the remote peer is no longer responding

I don't have any software firewall running, and I've set a rule on our LAN interface to allow all traffic from my host.  Any ideas?  The client thinks its a firewall issue on my side.

thanks for any help
Collin

Nevermind – found out that it was actually a problem using a virtualized client machine.  A physical device worked OK.
