is a group necessary for the ike user , if i am to have that configured on all the user terminals that are here in the company.
also could you provide some insight into whether it is possible to have this integrated to active directory for xauth user account, so that users can have the same password all across.
i will post the logs from netscreen and the ssg20 as soon as possible.

Hi,
so you tried to config the vpn but your netscreen remote cannot connect?
Could you please post the log from the netscreen remote and the event log from the ssg20 when you try to connect?
The most common errors are the shared key/identity not being the same, the phase 1 and phase 2 encription modes not being equale (that 3des/des/aes thing), not choosing 'extended authentication' in the netscreen remote, when you're using xauth.
About ike and xauth, basically an ike user is identified by their name (usually an email address) and by a preshared key. An xauth user is identified by his username and a password. You'd use the first to complete the phase 1 of the vpn (so that every user can share the same ike id, so can use the same profile in netscreen remote), and second to complete the phase 2 (netscreen remote will then ask for username and password, and those would be the one frmo xauth). xauth also allows to give your users different ip addresses on the vpn depending on the login, in case you need it.
Cheers,
