Re: [Users] Certificate rejected

If you send me both the gandalf and the CA certificate
I could tell you what is wrong with them.

Since you import the gandalf peer certificate locally using

   leftcert=gandalf.innovaman.pem

trust is put directly into the host certificate. The
corresponding CA certificate is therefore not required.
This is the reason that the connection is established
although the certificate received via IKE could not
be verified successfully.

Andreas
