quite honestly - I'm sure you've seen the tension/flamewar..seems best to
search for knowledge elsewhere?

Very true...but my goal is to have the windows users on the two 192.168.*
networks to be able to 'play together' (ie. file transfer/printers/etc).
Which leads me to the NAT and/or Routing questions..it's how to get the
other computers on those networks to talk 'through' the IPSec machine (which
are NOT currently the gateways)
