Re: [FW-1] IKE failure CP NG-FP3, WatchGuard SOHO 6



Ian and all: some further information was discovered:
It appears that the SOHO box uses regular DES and SHA1 to communicate the
key exchange. The "Intranet" parms as described below must be set to DES,
SHA1, and 768key. The VPN Encryption parameters were set to 3DES and MD5 at
either end in the configs. I did get a sucessful key exchange. Now I can
continue my experimentation.

Thanks guys - I know I'll be back with other problems...
