Hi!
I found the solution and wrote a short description to the
mailing list just a minute ago (so anyone with a similar
problem will find this in the archives & on google)
It was a problem with the names I used for the DSN: Windows
obviously doesn't like names like "xS+S" (though it did work
with FreeS/WAN)
Now I use names without "+" (like "xss"), and suddenly it works!

It just printed the usual timeout messages. There was _no_

Thanks. Marcus Müller gave me this hint, too, and the
log entries in this file finally led me to the solution!
