I am busy setting up an IPSec tunnel as well. Is the only solution here to
have two separate boxes as gateway stages, the outer one unpacking the
IPSec, and the inner one doing the IP Filtering and NAT?

Thanks
 Bruce

	ipnat is part of ipf.

	for transport mode, there will be less problem.  the only problem
	i can think of is that, you cannot classify the following packet
	as "tcp packet" in ipf rule, since ipf does not chase header chain:
		IP AH TCP payload
