[vpn-help] win2008r2 ike phase 1 fails, works on win7x64 sp1

Thu Mar 8 01:09:25 CST 2012

HI Andrew,

on the same Hypervisor, is a windows 7 working.
And as I mentioned before, I can see the packets on the vpn client with a network sniffer.

And when I install the cisco client on the same vm, the tunnel is working fine.

Regards
Martin

Martin,

I have seen some other discussions on these lists where other people have had trouble with getting Shrew to work on Win2K8R2 and on any OS running in a VM. The suspicion is that Win2K8R2 is not supported and that something in the Hypervisor might be preventing the connection from establishing. I, personally, have not tried Shrew Client on an OS in a VM so I don't have any advice there. I would check to make sure that there aren't any firewall rules on the hypervisor that may be preventing the tunnel from establishing.

Regards,
Andrew

HI Andrew,

both machines win7 and win2008r2 are behind the same firewall. (Watchguard)
Both machines have their sw firewalls (onboard windows) on.
I have verified the arrival of answer packets with

-       a monitoring port.

-       A local installation of the Microsoft network monitor on the win2008r2 box.

The empty capture files I mentioned are from the Shrew Trace utility.
I appended them.

Further Details.
Both are vms on a esxi 4.1 host.
The win2008r2 ist running with a vmxnet3, the win7 box runs with e1000 adapter.

The Firewall Server is some sort of cisco, i guess a ASA.

Regards
Martin

Martin,

I'm a little confused. You say that a network sniffer sees that the packets are arriving on the Win2K8 server but the VPN client does not and that debug packet captures are empty. Where was the sniffer placed? Which debug packet captures are empty? What is the VPN server that you are trying to connect to? Is the Win2K8 server behind a firewall? Is it the same firewall that the Win7 box is behind? Are you using the same configuration file between the two machines? Are there any other VPN clients installed on the Win2K8 box? Is there a software firewall running (by default Windows firewall is on in Win2K8R2)?

Hi,

on a windows 2008 R2 Server i have a problem in phase 1.
Problem: the vpn client does not see the answers from vpn server.
I have verified with Network sniffer that the packets arrive on the win2008 r2 box.

The cap files from debugging are completely empty.
No send and no receivepackets.
In the iked log I see resend's and then a timeout like that:
