SSH Sentinel and LinkSys RV042 VPN Router

Hi all,

I'm new to this VPN setup stuff and I'm trying to learn all I can as Iset this up for a non-profit I'm working with.

I've been beating my head all day on this and I still can't seem to get the SSH VN client to connect to the VPN router. I went through the setup tutorial at

formatting link

times and still no joy.

The client is configured as described in the tutorial and the router as well. Both have the correct configuration re: the lan at the router end (local group on router = 192.168.2.0 subnet 255.255.255.0) and on the client end (remote network = 192.168.2.0 subnet 255.255.255.0)

The SSH IKE Log shows the following:

And the system log at the router end shows the following: May 23 09:41:20 2005 VPN Log Ignoring Vendor ID payload Type = [SSH Communications Security IPSEC Express version 4.1.0] May 23 09:41:20 2005 VPN Log Ignoring Vendor ID payload Type = [draft-stenberg-ipsec-nat-traversal-01] May 23 09:41:20 2005 VPN Log Ignoring Vendor ID payload Type = [draft-stenberg-ipsec-nat-traversal-02] May 23 09:41:20 2005 VPN Log Ignoring Vendor ID payload Type = [draft-ietf-ipsec-nat-t-ike-00] May 23 09:41:20 2005 VPN Log [Tunnel Negotiation Info]
