I've had this happen intermittently in the past, but I believe it's less common with the recent releases.

When we were using shrew a few years ago at a previous job, one of my Windows wonk IT guys wrote this drop dead simple .bat file to clear the condition. I've kept it on my desktop and just hit it whenever I experience issues:

net stop ipsecd
net stop iked
net start iked
net start ipsecd

But again, it seems to happen less often with the newer builds, I believe.

Hello,

I was wondering if it has been reported or if anyone is aware that in many cases the ShrewSoft IKE Daemon service either crashes or is non-responsive after the windows 7/windows 8 computer goes into standby when the VPN tunnel is connected. When trying to connect to the VPN the user will receive the message "failed to attached to key daemon". Starting or restarting the IKE Daemon service will resolve the problem.
