I think I have all the necessary parameters, although we are using a SecureID token, and I've been entering the password as PIN+Token, and I always have this error. It that how it's supposed to work?

My config file:

IPSec gateway <server IP address>
IPSec ID <ID given by my IT>
IPSec secret <Group pwd given by my IT>
Xauth username <my username>
Xauth password <PIN+Token>
vendor nortel

Thanks,

Can the fact that I can't ping my VPN server be the reason for this error "vpnc: response was invalid [1]: (ISAKMP_N_INVALID_EXCHANGE_TYPE)(7)"?

It's not a problem when using the Nortel Contivity Client, but figured I'd ask.
