What makes you say so?  Do you get any errors?  Where did you put the
file?  Can you verify that it's there when you log into the emulator
with 'adb shell'?  And is that path equal to what you configured in the
top Android.mk file as strongswan_CONFDIR?

The ipsec script is not really working on Android as there is no 'test'
or '[' command, of which the script makes use extensively.  Simply use
starter and stroke directly.  Use 'starter' to start starter and charon
and use 'stroke up' to start a connection (to terminate them just kill
starter).  Have a look at how the script uses starter and stroke to
implement individual commands.
