SRX5308 Box to Box VPN with 192.168.0.0/18 Not Working

Hi John,
This took some doing, including recovering from several false starts and some inexplicable SRX5308 behaviour, but I was finally able to get this working. Indeed the key thing ended up being both/either of: 1) updating the Office A firmware to 4.3.3-5, and 2) *resetting* this router to factory defaults and *re-creating* its configuration manually.
I really can't come up with any root cause for why this didn't work before (or why the error message was displayed previously); the remote Office B SRX 5308 (running the older firmware) was never re-configured in any way.

Hello NACC,
I'm glad you got it to work, I also had a hard time trying to replicate the issue so I wasn't able to get back to you right away. Did not see any notes on the older firmware that you have used regarding VPN. If you have any more questions, I'll be happy to assist.
Thanks,
