Tim, from Cisco's site you can download the vpn 3000's error messages and
what they mean.

Regarding this issue,

Delete the internal cert that came with the conc and reboot the box and try
again.

Subject: FW: Problems installing CA cert on VPN 3005

Hi Guys,

 

I have a VPN 3005 and CA server on the same subnet.

 

 

      CA .101 -------- 183.1.119.x ------ .11 VPN 3k public Int

 

 

Both devices have their date and time set to match.

 

The VPN3k is configured with a domain name and a host name and doesn't have
any filter on its public int so all traffic is allowed.

 

The CA Server (a Windows 2000 Server) has successfully issued Cert's to
other devices in the network.

 

Several times I tried to install the CA cert on the VPN 3k but it doesn't
work. To see what's going on I turned on logging to the max level on the
VPN 3k.

 

I sent the syslog output to Kiwi syslog which is easier to read and is on
the same box as the CA. The output is shown below..

 

Notice message #29, 34 (Object not found), 45 and 48.

 

I wish I knew what those messages were telling me and what I could do to fix
the problem.

 

Can anyone help me understand what's going on and what needs to be done to
fix this problem?

 

Thanks, Tim

Did you enable the SCEP traffic both ways on the VPNC Public Filter?

 

Also is your CA fixed now, you had issues with R4 before (SCEP related)?

Are you logging to the maximum level for those EVENT classes in the VPNC?

 

Regards

Farrukh,

I DID exactly follow that procedure which is why I'm so baffled.

I set a hostname and domain name, set the clock, and followed that procedure
exactly.

From the syslog below, you can see some messages (message 20 and 23) that
indicate problems but I don't know what to do to fix those problems.

Do you know if there's a way I can get more detailed syslog messages?

The docs say to enable syslog classes CERT and CLIENT which I did but as you
can see from the output below, it doesn't tell you very much useful info.

Any ideas?

Thanks so much for all your help.

Tim
