{{Note box|Softether VPN only accepts a maximum of 9 charachters as the Pre-shared Key. The default key length of SME Server is 31, thus too much for Softether VPN. Since the PSK of SME Server is automatically generated at the time of template expansion (e.g. signal-event remoteaccess-update) and NOT stored in a db key (as it probably should), one can not set the pre-saherd key manually by a db property setting. Testing of the below has been done by manually custom templates limiting the PSK length to 9. A NFR for SME Server has been submitted via bug #10358.}}

To overcome the limitation of Softether to accept more then 9 characters as a PSK we need to create custom templates that limit the SME Server PSK to 9 characters only:
