This expectation shows that you are not running 3.22. Can you use 3.22 ?

If that is the remote IP then it seems you might be missing
rightrsasigkey=%fromcert or the remote is not sending a CERT
payload? (maybe try leftsendcert=always on the remote?)

If you are using intermediate certs, perhaps you need sendca=all to send
the intermediate CA's over IKE as well.

I've never seen the p flag set/used ?

That's odd. We recommend using 3.22 or 3.23rc1.

That should never happen. Can you run with plutodebug=all and see what's
going on?
