Hi,

I had a real ***** of a time getting this to work...here are the settings I have that work. My router is a dlink dfl-700 so your mileage may vary.

You'll need to download a free program called IPSecuritas  http://www.lobotomo.com/products/IPSecuritas/

My config on the router:
  Authentification:  PSK
  Tunnel type:  roaming user
        "require user auth via IKE XAuth to open tunnel" is *unchecked*
  IKE mode:  main mode IKE

My config in IPSecuritas:
mode: host to network
remote network: 192.168.0.0/24
local address:  (blank)
exchange mode: main
proposal check: obey
nonce size: 16
phase 1:
  lifetime: 28800 seconds
  dh group: mod1024 (2)
  encryption: aes 256
  authentification: sha1
phase 2:
  lifetime: 28800 seconds
  pfs group: none
  encryption: aes 128
  authentification: hmac sha1
options:
  these are *on*
    compression/deflate
    IPSec DOI
    SIT_IDENTITY_ONLY
    initial contact
    Passive
    MIP6
    DHCP pass-through
    establish IKE immediately
  these are *off*
    generate policy
    verify identifier
    verify certificate

Good luck!
Ed
