I'm trying to get a Nokia E60 Mobile VPN Client (Symbian 3rd) connected

to a Cisco PIX, but it doesn' work yet. The PIX-Policy has the lifetime

86400 sec. In the "debug crypto isakmp" I get the following line:

ISAKMP: life duration (VPI) of 0x0 0x1 0x51 0x80
ISAKMP (0): atts are not acceptable....


When I connect with a Cisco VPN Client, I get:


ISAKMP: life duration (VPI) of 0x0 0x20 0xc4
ISAKMP (0): atts are acceptable....


What do these hexadecimal numbers mean?
What do I have to change in the Policy of my Nokia VPN Client to get
accepted like the Cisco Client?


Here is my Nokia VPN Policy:


SECURITY_FILE_VERSION: 3
[INFO]
VPN-Policy for Nokia Mobile VPN Client v3.0.
[POLICY]
sa ipsec_1 = {

hard_lifetime_usetime 3600
soft_lifetime_bytes 0
soft_lifetime_addtime 3600
soft_lifetime_usetime 3600



}


remote 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 = { ipsec_1(195.226.32.136) }
inbound = { }
outbound = { }

86400 is hex 0x15180

0x20c4 isn't any figure I recognize, but I notice it doesn't have
four groups, and I find traces online with 0x0 0x20 0xc4 0x9b .
Perhaps you missed the 0x9b in your posting?

0x20c49b is 2147483 which happens to be the truncation of
0x7fffffff 2147483647 -- which doesn't sound like a coincidence.

Lifetimes are automatically negotiated (the minimum of the
two is used, if I recall correctly). That suggests that the line
or three above the VPI dump is the one at fault.

Yes, maybe i forgot the 0x9b.. But these lines (life duration...) are
the only lines in the VPI dumps of the Nokia and the Cisco Client which
are different. Everything else (encryption, hash, group ..) is the same
in both dumps.

What does the number 0x20c49b - 2147483 / 0x7fffffff - 2147483647 mean?
do I have to change my LIFTETIME_SECONDS from 86400 to 2147483?

sorry, is anybody still into this? nobody a suggestion?
