Mark,

You are correct sir, DPD means dead peer detection :) Are you sure you 
are running the latest version of iked? I did a lot of cleanup for that 
feature right before the 2.0.2 release. Could you please send me the log 
file with debug level output in a private email? I will look into it 
again and see if I can identify the problem or at least provide some 
better settings to customize DPD parameters.

Thanks again for the bug report,
