thanks. two meta-items:

for the osx folks, if you install macports, you can install proctools, 
which gives you 'pgrep' and 'pkill', which makes for a much simpler 
alias ( 'sudo pkill iked' )

and if you're on windows (my home machine is win 7 professional 64 bit, 
and it also suffers the sleep/wake failures of shrew), a simple batch 
script of the following accomplishes the same thing:

net stop ipsecd
net stop iked
net start iked
net start ipsecd
