I was hoping for a more informative and realistic reply. This is what 
the client uses so I need to work with their existing equipment. Sure I 
will be providing recommendations for cheaper, more secure and powerful 
iptables/Linux based solutions, but for now I need to resolve this 
particular issue. Also, a bit more explanation would be nice? Is your 
suggestion (dont use ISA) based on the knowledge/experience that there 
is a functional limitation in ISA which would prohibit this?
