[vpn-help] . Windows 8 - Shrew to Juniper connection - SA failed (James Minard)

[James Minard]

Further followup on this today revealed that it's not just a Windows 8 issue with the 2.2.0 client. I had a Windows 7 machine that exhibited the same behavior. I downgraded that one to 2.1.7 and it worked fine. I guess my next step is going to be to load the 2.2.0 client on my Windows 7 PC and play around with some of the settings, unless anyone knows offhand why this would be occurring. One thing I did notice is that my 2.1.7 client connections with NAT-T / IKE | ESP, but the 2.2.0 client says NAT-T v2 /IKE | ESP

The xauth is succeeding, but on the remote client, if I switch over to the Network tab, it shows 0 established SAs, 0 Expired, but the Failed starts at 0 and then starts incrementing up to 1,2,3, etc. I thought maybe it was something to do with the Microsoft wi-fi virtual adapter in Windows 8, so I had the remote user disable that since I thought it was like the Windows 7 Microsoft virtual wi-fi minport adapter that I have seen cause problems with Shrew, but it didn't' make a difference.

Any suggestions on what else could be causing this behavior? I've never seen the SA not establish after xauth is successful. The same user account works fine from my workstation, but it's Windows 7 and on an Ethernet connection, not wi-fi.
