After an unexected shutdown of my server the IPSec service refused to start. So any help please how to start IPSec service?? by the way i am using Windows 2003 serverm66z

Hi, This problem can occur if the IPSec\Policy\Local registry key is adeleted or when there is a corrupted file in the policy store. The file may become corrupted if an interruption (such as a power outage or unexpected shudown) occurs when the policy is being written to the disk.
