RE: NAT rules for VPN only allowing one user?

["Neil Aggarwal" <neil@JAMMConsulting.com>]

Jan:

Actually, I need the SNAT rule to make my remote
users look like they are coming from the local network.

For some reason, the Linksys does not respond to the
connection unless I have that.

Thanks,
        Neil

This is redundant.
