I am  just curious why there would be mutliple
instances to the same machine(xeno). Is there any way
to eliminate this in order to reduce overhead for the
server(key exchange & encryption??).  uniqueids=yes
should work, but I am using specific IP for my xeno
config setup. 
   Also, I setup leftcert=MyCert.pem for my Freeswan
local server and rightcert=xeno.pem for remote
machine,which works fine.Is that in anyway cause any 
problesm & security issues?  It won't work when I omit
leftcert, but  shouldn't it use my default RSA
certificate in /etc/ipsec.secrets. 

Thanks in advance.
