IPSEC setup.

Hello,
     I have been having troubles setting up an IPSEC tunnel using the 
redhat-config-network gui. I have done a trace on the ifup scripts to 
nail down the problem, but while I understand why it doesn't work, I'm 
not sure if I understand what I should change it to. Here's the 
situation I'm dealing with:

Machine A								Machine B
internal 10.0.0.0/24						internal 192.168.0.0/24
external 24.68.x.x						external 24.72.x.x
				----------- Internet -------------

the problem comes when the script attempts to setup the routes and I 
get a
RTNETLINK answers: Network is unreachable
which is dies trying to execute: 'ip route add to 192.168.0.0/24 via 
24.72.x.x'
Which of course wouldn't work.
my ifcfg-ipsec0 contains:
DSTGW=192.168.0.1
SRCGW=10.0.0.1
DSTNET=192.0.0.0/24
SRCNET=10.0.0.0/24
DST=24.72.x.x
TYPE=IPSEC
ONBOOT=no

I've also tried:

DSTGW=24.72.x.1
SRCGW=24.68.x.1
DSTNET=192.0.0.0/24
SRCNET=10.0.0.0/24
DST=24.72.x.x
TYPE=IPSEC
ONBOOT=no

so I must not understand what is happening. Where am I going wrong, 
I've gone through the advanced routing howto, and have managed freeswan 
tunnels for a couple years, though I don't quite grasp how this is all 
configured. Any more documentation or pointers would be totally 
appreciated.
