      Hey everyone,

      I'm running 1.2rc1 and I can't get an ipsec tunnel working
      I've enabled ipsec and added a tunnel to my other PFsense firewall.
      The tunnel is supposed to go over WAN2 (which has a static IP) but I tried using WAN as well.
      All the configuration seems alright in the WebConfigurator, but when I check the serivces status, racoon is stopped and won't start.
      I fired up the shell on the box and tried running racoon manualy in the foreground to see what was happening. It gives me a configfile parse error.
      So I went to look at the config file in /var/etc/racoon.conf and there is nothing there. Not an empty file, no file at all.
      I have restarted the box several times and reinstalled once now.
      I should note that this is installed on vmware server.

      What output/config files do you guys need to help me out with this?
