It almost convinces me to try again.  But the boss wants this working
yesterday, so the Cisco will be in soon.  Between myself and an
MCSP/almost MCSE, we couldn't get it working.  I would try Linux VPN to
this guy's Cisco router instead of one of his NT's behind it, but if it
doesn't work, the boss may look to hiring someone to manage the network
in my place.  (This Jack of All Trades thing is great until they realize
that means I'm master of none.)

It'd be nice if this list automatically set the reply-to on messages to
the list.  I don't know how many solutions I've missed because someone
else asks a question that I foresee needing help with only to have the
answer go straight back to the questioner.  Then I have to sit there and
ask the same question just to even see who can answer it.
