If you're getting to the stage where ESP packets are being sent, then I'd 
guess you've successfully established a tunnel. Read this mail re: 
troubleshooting packet flow problems.

http:/lists.freeswan.org/pipermail/users/2003-March/019309.html
(doc/trouble.html can also be helpful.)

Don't forget that you can tcpdump the ipsec interface to see the clear 
traffic. I'd bet that your packets are getting snared by iptables rules.

Post the output of "ipsec barf' from both sides to the web. It's a summary of 
(most of) the information needed to debug FreeS/WAN issues.
