Same again with me. 16 character PSK, set by my company and is something I have no control over.

Is this "strong key" requirement enforced in the GUI only? Or is it a fundamental part of strongswan itself? I.e. could I circumvent it by entering a longer (incorrect) key in the gui and then modify a config file somewhere to hold the correct key?

I agree, this feels like a bug. If the server is set up to accept (require) a shorter key, then the fact that the strongswan client is unable to connect seems like an error.
