The SonicWall sounds promising because they make a full range of devices,
i.e., price range. I considered NetScreen, but they don't natively
authenticate against the AD/WinNT4 directories. Since the Sonic can talk
Win2k IPsec, I can leave a ISA Server running as the FW at HQ and use it for
the Lan-to-Lan tunnels, and to authenticate Win2k laptops. Stick the Sonics
in locations that have more than one folks.

Ahem.  Plus, unless something has changed within the last month, Netscreen
can't talk to Win2k's IPsec.  Certainly, this is a limitation of Win2k,
but it's still horribly annoying.

If anyone has gotten this to work, please let me know.  Netscreen
tech support says they've never gotten it to work.
