I just wanted to write and say thanks for all the responses people sent
back. Working as a software engineer in Australia, it s hard to predict
what networks in other countries look like. I think I would have to say
about half of the networks I have seen over here are NAT'ed, with that
number increasing.

Our marketting people assured us that no-one in the US NAT'ed. Clearly
they are incorrect.

Many thanks for the assistance,
Mikal
