According to your racoon's debug (and confirmed by tcpdump), racoon
tries to initiate a phase1 negociation, but never gets any answer from
peer, so you may start by checking peer's logs, and/or compare both
configurations.

If that comment in your racoon.conf is right, this is probably your
(first ?) configuration issue: as initiator, racoon will use the first
listed mode, so it will try a main mode negociation here.

Note that, if you have complete access to configurations, aggressive
mode has a lower security level than main mode, so should be avoided
when main mode can also be used !
