What type of IPSec connection are you trying to make on your clients side? Does the client have a firewall in front of it? What ports did you open on your firewall for your L2TP/IPSec connection? Are you attempting an ESP, AH or both types of Ipsec connections? What type of firewall is in front of your server? Have you tried to directly connect your server to the Internet and attempt the connection again?

If I plug the client into the LAN, I can connect fine but when I try to connect remotely I run into the problem. I don't think it's the firewall because I am getting no messages in the log. I have been using IPSEC monitor and it shows my connection to the server but the number of "Bad SPI Packets" increases each time I try to connect. I can't seem to figure out what I am missing. Any thoughts to help my hurting head?
