I don't think I've been negligent because G**gle couldn't find that. I guess many know that G**gle has been eliminating alot of technical search results lately. I am dealing with so many other problems that I would never have thought to search the source code. If I'm understanding you correctly, I need to change /etc/strongswan/strongswan.d/charon.conf to this: charon { filelog { /var/log/charon.log { time_format = %a, %Y-%m-%d %R ike_name = yes append = no default = 2 flush_line = yes max_packet = 30000 mgr = 0 net = 1 enc = 1 asn = 1 job = 1 knl = 1 } } } ... then # systemctl stop strongswan-swanctl # systemctl start strongswan-swanctl There is no change in the symptom, which would have been doubly baffling if I -had- managed to find the error in the source.
