Dear Liam & others who maybe able to help. 

I am having problems getting my Shrewsoft vpn client to work with my
netgrear prosafe FVS318n.  It seems to create a tunnel and then it will not
establish a security association.  It keeps giving me lots of Failed - 8 ETC.  

Would you be happy to send me screenshots of your Shrew setup so I can
compare with mine and see where I might be going wrong. 

Otherwise, if anybody knows where I might be going wrong with the security
associations, I would be very grateful for some help. 

Many thanks
