Is there a way to prevent a user from bypassing loader and
loading/unloading stuff at the OK prompt? (other than physical security
measures)
I tried placing "/boot/loader -n" in "/boot.config", but it didn't make a
difference.

The configuration you describe is still considered tunnel mode, even
though it looks part transport / part tunnel mode. Tunnel mode occurs
whenever a gateway encrypts on behalf of a network. Typical tunnels have

What firewall are you using and what rules have you created for UDP?
Using -sU (UDP scan) sends UDP packets. Whereas not specifying a switch
assumes a full connect scan which uses TCP.
