[Vpn-help] configuring client for Fortigate

Have followed the directions in the howtofortigate guide, but hitting a
problem when attempting to setup the new firewall policy.  Details first -
Router: Fortigate-60B 3.00-b5115(MR5 Patch 3).  Client [not ready to run
yet, but will be the latest - 2.1.4.

Problem: follow directions up to and including creating Phase 1 and Phase 2
parameters in VPN IPSEC -

Note following issues though - following directions verbatim, but system
will not allow vpnclient_phase1 as this is too many characters so abbrev. to
vpnclient_ph1 and _ph2, plus in guide under Phase 2 Parameters it says "To
create a new Phase 2 definition, click on the Create Phase 1 button at the
top of the screen".  When doing that a different screen comes up - so
presumed it should be "click on the Create Phase 2 button" so maybe you
should change that in the guide for clarity.  Back to problem...

Creating a new policy, follow all directions as noted, but after selecting
IPSEC in the Action dropdown, there is no "vpnclient_ph1" in the VPN tunnel
drop down - just:

---- Auto Key ----
---- Manual Key ----

Stuck at this point.

Thanks in advance for the help.
