When I posted this, the file versions were:
winipsec.dll 5.1.2600.0
ipsecsnp.dll 5.1.2600.0
oakley.dll 5.1.2600.1106
"sc query policyagent" shows the service running.
I came across article 818043 relating to NAT-T and applied it thinking that
might have some bearing on the issue. It did, in that it changed the
problem, but I still have a problem.
After the update, the file versions on all of the files are 5.1.2600.1240.
When I try to launch the IP Security snap-in, I now get "The binding handle
is invalid", instead of the original error.
The rasapi32.log shows:
[1260] 09:15:42: RasEnumConnectionsW
[1260] 09:15:57: RasEnumConnectionsW
The tapisrv.log shows
[1332] 09:15:39:380: [INFO ] Service control code=4
And the only entry in the Oakley log is from startup, and that is:
1-19: 07:00:06:20:1f4 Obtain WSARecvMsg pointer failed 10045
1-19: 07:00:06:20:1f4 Obtain WSARecvMsg pointer failed 0
