I recently did a little research on ike-scan version 1.8 and posted it to my blog. ike-scan version 1.8 is included in the BackTrack 2 beta release but the new version of ike-scan, which is strangely enough version 1.9, is a part of BackTrack 2 Final. You should either update to the new version of BackTrack or recompile your ike-scan version 1.8 if you cannot update. Check out my post to see why:
