shrew soft vpn client won’t connect to remote site

Hello everyone  I stuck resolving one issue for our user. She uses shrew vpn client to connect to vpn. It is not like l2tp/ipsec connection with username password and psk. Actually I can connect to vpn eve with l2tp/ipsec. But she uses something like vpn site-to-site connection. I noticed in settings of vpn confid it has phase1 and phase2 selector and everything else what required to setup site-to-site connection

so  whenever she clicks connect this soft stucks at “bringing up tunnel” . It may stay bringing up tunnel state many hours with no error . 

i cant see any error in fortigate logs (attaced). Remote site admin told that everyone can connect so somethin preventing her connection. ..maybe my firewall.
