I guess the question(s) is/are:

1. Are you performing NAT (I know the previous response mentioned it - just
wasn't clarified)?

2. If you are doing NAT, is the contivity setup forcing just AH (not ESP) -
AH won't work with NAT (AFAIK).

I'm guessing this is the Nortel Contivity switch (Qwest rebranded). Do you
see any failed IKE/ISAKMP attempts in the logs (you'll have to dig through
the java GUI to find this stuff)? Run tcpdump on the external interface of
the firewall and at least see if the traffic is traversing your fw properly.

3. Have you looked at the firewall logs? Maybe you're dropping traffic
somewhere along the line?

4. I'm assuming proto 50 (51 for AH) and udp/500 are allowed in/out (see
previous message re: logs)?

I know this is obvious stuff - just helps for the troubleshooting :-)

Cheers,
Mike

Tried this rule but no dice.  Still get message that server is not
responding.  Any other thoughts?

i assume the client is behind nat.

if you're using 3.2, try this rule:

nat on $ext_if inet proto udp from any port = isakmp to any -> \
        $ext_if port 500

problem is that the server is probably ignoring isakmp traffic that
doesn't have a source port of 500.
