It's fixed. Unfortunately I made so many changes that I'm not sure which one fixed it. Thanks for the replies. I'm sorry about the delay, work has been overwhelming. I went through the VPN Client logs, I only got the following entries before the tunnel closed:
20150724 10:09:24:588 Default (SA Ikev 1Gateway-P1) SEND phase 1 Aggressive Mode [SA] [KEY_EXCH] [NONCE] [ID] [VID] [VID] [VID] [VID] [VID] [VID]

I made 1 change and got error messages about bad cookies. I'm not sure exactly what I did, but I finally got a tunnel. I then remoted into another laptop in a different city, copied the configuration, and acquired a tunnel.
Thanks for the replies and pointing me to the tutorial on the logs. Now I have something to fall back on if I run into another problem.
