Answering my own post, just in case someone else has this problem :)
It turned out that a RDGW had hijacked port 443.
As soon as that was remedied, the VPN was working again.
Maybe the certificate has expired? Zarniwhoop you tell me how to add certificate in mac? I have a problem with this, I tested on windows and linux works fine. I have the same problem with the iphone, I can't add a certificate. There is poor help in the forum ...
