I'm trying to use VPN Tracker, but leep getting errors in the log file having to do with the Remote Identifer dialogue. Here's a named-changed example of what I'm entering:

C=US, ST=Virginia, L=My Town, O='Example, Inc', OU=Example Security, CN=terminus-out.example.net

Note the comma in the O part of the field. I'm getting various parsing errors no matter how I try to enter this field's value. I've looked for examples via google but can't find any setups that use an ASN.1 DN identifier here.

What's just a little curious is that the VPN Tracker log file seems to include extra quotes. For example, here's the log entry for the above setting (again changed a little to protect the innocent):

2007-06-01 15:20:36: ERROR: cftoken.l:631:yyerror(): /Library/Application Support/VPN Tracker 4/vpntracker.conf:4: ""C=US, ST=Virginia, L=My Town, O='Example, Inc', OU=Example Security, CN=terminus-out.example.net" failed to set identifer.

(note the '""' at the start of the string, leading me to think something is unbalanced)

I've tried many combinations, including setting all on multiple lines, e.g.:

C=US
ST=Virginia
L=My Town
O='Example, Inc'
OU=Example Security
CN=terminus-out.example.net

using backslash escapes before the single (or double) quotes etc in the 'Example, Inc' setting, all to no avail. Using double quotes or not quoting this field the parse error only shows part of it

Any ideas would be appreciated...

Thanks,
-Mike
