Does the new BM3.8 with the updated Nat.NLM work with IPSec?
I.E. Can the Microsoft VPN client work through the firewall?

The Microsoft VPN client isn't what I would call a IPSec-compliant VPN
client. The one most people use does L2TP or PPTP for tunneling and
uses the GRE protocol for encryption. The GRE protocol does not work
through Novell's NAT. However, I have also heard that there is a
IPSec-compliant VPN client buried somewhere inside XP - I haven't
gotten to testing that yet, but it should work fine through Novell NAT.
