[Swan] private key for cert Thor not found in local cache; loading from NSS DB

Thanks Nick! I was following a sub Reddit that suggested this can't be
done. I think the problem is always going to be the IGW and NAT aware stuff
we have no control over. But I'm looking into it.

This thread started out in confusion about Thor's private key which I've no
solved by completely wiping and redoing the ipsec NSS DB. I have no idea
why it broke but here's what I can now thankfully. Unfortunately now
ipsechost1 says " private key for cert ipsechost1 not found in local cache;
loading from NSS DB" which of course I know is got to be miss leading since
ipsechost1 has active SA's created with the other host in my lab.  I think
this statement is miss leading and maybe it could be clarified later on so
noobs like me don't gravitate towards it.

Is there anything you guys would recommend I do to debug or troubleshoot
this or is this as simple as mismatching info due to NAT?
