Hi Redoute,

I don't really know why it is not responding.  You indicate that the 
config works on a WinXP machine, so it should work here.

Often when a gateway does not respond it is because it rejects the 
connection request because it does not recognize the peer (the client) 
identification (Local Identity on the Authentication tab of the Shrew 
config).

I notice that there appears to be a configuration difference in the 
Shrew client between your first iked.log and the second one.  Maybe you 
made a change when testing and your problem is now different (gateway 
not recognizing the peer) even though the symptom is the same as before?

First log:
11/09/15 17:15:53 <A : peer config add message
11/09/15 17:15:53 DB : peer added ( obj count = 1 )
11/09/15 17:15:53 ii : local address 0.0.0.0 selected for peer

Second log:
11/09/16 16:52:45 <A : peer config add message
11/09/16 16:52:45 <A : proposal config message
11/09/16 16:52:45 <A : proposal config message
11/09/16 16:52:45 <A : proposal config message
11/09/16 16:52:45 <A : client config message
11/09/16 16:52:45 <A : local id 'xxx at xxx.xxx' message
11/09/16 16:52:45 <A : preshared key message
11/09/16 16:52:45 <A : remote resource message
11/09/16 16:52:45 <A : peer tunnel enable message
11/09/16 16:52:45 DB : peer added ( obj count = 1 )
11/09/16 16:52:45 ii : local address 10.166.72.254 selected for peer
