  Hi.


What does this message means ?
I'm getting a lots of those.

===Cut===
Dec 2 14:35:15 ural85-gw0-omega kernel: ah_input: packet replay failure: 
SA(SPI=3662816 src=10.50.116.6 dst=10.50.110.210)
===Cut===

I'm using FreeBSD as a security gateway:

FreeBSD A >======ipsec over gre===> FreeBSD B

A is 10.50.110.210
B is 10.50.116.6

А is a 8.1-RELEASE amd64 box, B is 8.0-RELEASE-p2 i386. A is not the 
only ipsec peer of B, B has a dozen of another cisco/freebsd peers. Keys 
are exchanged via the ipsec-tools racoon fork. However, I'm getting much 
lesser of messages on B (and all of them are about A), for example:

SA(SPI=136093282 src=10.50.110.210 dst=10.50.116.6)
===Cut===

And I'm getting no messages aboyut other FreeBSD/Cisco hosts (and all of 
them are using IKE). All of other FreeBSD boxes are i386.

I'm using ah+esp policy (can post it here if it's related).

All seems to be working fine, except those messages. I'm worrying 
because the cause of those messages can be the cause of rarely 
encountered VoIP distortions, but to be honest, the messages occurs much 
more frequently than the distortions and can be releted with overloaded 
channel, but still.

Thanks.
Eugene.
