When I tried to use VPN client v3.6.4 or v4.0.1 to connect to PIX 515E, the VPN client just stopped at message "securing communication channel". I have checked my config many times but fail to find any config error. My config is as below: (IP address already amended for security reason)

firewall(config)# wr t

Problem solved! The problem lies on the ipsec transform-set. des can never work with sha, des only work with md5.
