I've been using IPSec and racoon alot lately creating tunnels between
FreeBSD machines. Everything works as it should once I've got it running.
I do however seem to get delays when one, or both ends of the tunnel drop or are
rebooted. On reboot, once the machine starts racoon, it takes two or three
minutes for the tunnel to come back up. If I stop and restart racoon, it takes
only 60 seconds. I'd prefer to cut this time down on both to 30 seconds or
less. Below is my racoon.conf. I've watched the racoon logs, and it
doesn't give me any errors, or failed negotiations. Any ideas?

Any ideas?I had something like this with a Racoon/FreeS/WAN setup. I found out that the algorithms did no match, and the tunnel would only be built from the Racoon side. Seems FreeS/WAN was set up to accept a wider range of algorithms than Racoon. I have to confess I did not understand if you can specify more than one algorithm to Racoon. Switch on debugging and look for rejected connection attempts.
