[Vpn-help] Windows IKE Service needs restart sometimes

[Markus Stockhausen]

Hello,

in my excessive tests the last days with Shrew Client in
Windows I got aware that I quite often had to restart the
services because all of a sudden a simple ping could
no longer pass the tunnel although the connection had been
established successfully.

The error is not critical at all but it is reproducable
and I hope someone can confirm the behaviour. You simply
have to connect to your VPN Gateway, ping a computer
through the tunnel and disconnect afterwards. When you
have repeated this about 4 to 10 times the ping fails and
nothing can bring the client back to normal operation
except a restart of the IKE daemon. With this restart
everything works fine again.

Hopefully its not my PC only that shows this behaviour.

Markus
