A lot of more things do not work and end with same error. example: 1, all alone dh ike=modp1536 # fail ike=dh22 # fail ike=dh23 # fail ike=dh24 # fail ... 2, all alone hash ike=md5 # fail ike=sha1 # fail 3, mix dh and hash ike=md5;dh22 # fail ike=sha1;modp1024 # fail ... 4, ike=aes-md5;dh22,modp1024 # fail Man pages says that it should be possible to set these values, ike=modp1536 is as an example in man page ipsec.conf. It seems only values from right can miss. ike=aes-md5;dh22,3des # pass ike=aes-md5,3des # pass ike=aes,3des # pass I tested it on rhel6.5.z and openswan-2.6.32-27.el6.
