    I'll reiterate that things are functioning fine once I get a rule that
    works the way I expect it to (I've been tcpdumping and testing as I make
    changes to the rules.) The box (a major plus) will not allow the traffic
    when I have it seemingly configured correctly, but not to its liking- so
    I think from a security perspective the box is doing the right thing-
    we're just not speaking the same language, or the initial configuration
    has some issues[1]. Once the rules are in place, I get fully functional,
    including over reboots.

    Watchguard has been good in getting hold of me and I have a support call
    scheduled for this afternoon- we'll see how that goes, but so far they've
    done all the right things and none of the wrong ones.

    Paul
    [1] Which if it is true, is something else that'll need to be addressed.
