Setting up strongSwan 4.3.2 (from the Ubuntu 10.04 LTS repositories), I managed
to get it working fantastic for OSX/iPhone/iPad clients. Windows clients I
kept getting "probable authentication failure (mismatch of preshared secrets?):
malformed payload in packet".
My /etc/ipsec.conf:
conn L2TP
authby=psk
compress=no
keyexchange=ikev1
pfs=no
rekey=no
type=transport
left=%defaultroute
leftnexthop=%defaultroute
leftprotoport=17/1701
right=%any
rightprotoport=17/%any
rightsubnetwithin=0.0.0.0/0
auto=start
So, I changed to using the Ubuntu 10.10 repository (strongSwan 4.5.0) and it
now works with every client I have thrown at it (Windows 7, XP, OSX, etc).
Just a heads up, and also in case anyone on this list has the power to backport
(or etc) a fixed version of strongSwan since 10.04 is still the current server
release for Ubuntu.
