I second Eero's comment, use a new IPSec daemon.
Openswan was forked and became Libreswan. Paul, now a RH employee, was a main developer for the Openswan project before he and others created the Libreswan fork. https://libreswan.org/
EL6 has Openswan EL7 has Libreswan
Racoon isn't all that fun to work with. If you have the option, ditch it and EL5 and move to a newer platform (preferably EL7 with Libreswan)
Libreswan will be in the next EL6 release ...
