Not really an option atm- thats why I asked about other firewall types.

My research has found that IPTables doesn't have a problem (according to 
IPCop)- needs some finer adjustments, but works.

So I'm now looking at testing IPFW or IPFilter- I'll advise the outcome 
of this as well; if it works on either of these then it won't a BSD 
issue. But I'm still curious to find what could be the issue with PF if 
it does work on the others...

Looking at my flows I see that Android appears to accept keys and start 
sending packets on 4500; whereas racoon local appears to ignore the 
packets and is left unaware that the keys are accepted. What I still 
haven't discovered is why? Is anyone further advanced on this?

I'm currently considering a comparison of IP packets to see if there is 
any difference as it passes through PF. Thoughts?
