Bad info...IPsec was *not* running.

Dynamic VPN should have a sanity check to see if IPSec is running. The RHS widget monitors vpnwatchd...but if you don't install IPsec, you have no idea if it is running or how to start it if it is not running.

Duplicated after a fresh install, vpnwatchd does not start if rsyslog has died.

[root@devel log]# service vpnwatchd start
Starting vpnwatch: no connection to syslog available
    - /dev/log is not a socket at /usr/sbin/vpnwatchd line 339
                                                           [FAILED]

Sanity check should attempt to restart rsyslog then start vpnwatchd
