LinuxQuestions.org - Adding NAT IP to Openswan VPN Tunnel on Amazon EC2

Hello,

I’m currently working on a Openswan configuration that involves an Amazon EC2 instance in a VPC. I’ve gotten Openswan to work with EC2 before when its just a simple connection going from my local network to the customer local network. However in this case the customer is asking that I add a NAT’d IP to our local network that they will use to transmit data to us. Having never done this before I thought I’d see if someone here was more knowledgeable with setting up a NAT’d IP on an Ubuntu instance. I’ve included my ipsec.conf and a bit of the auth.log that shows the connection not working at this time.
I did try searching a bit but was unable to find any Openswan links that had to do with this exact type of situation. Any help would be appreciated and thank you!
