    I'm comming into this discussion a little late, and have browsed through
    most of the thread and agree with most of the statements made. Through out
    my experience in the security field and a vast study of firewalls and dmz's
    i have come to the conclusion that a tri-homed system (utilizing nat) in the
    long run is the easiest and cheapest way to go, and i do believe that it is
    as secure as a two firewall system approach due to the fact of human
    failure. Meaning having two firewalls with two different rule sets on two
    diffrent systems will open up a greater risk of human failure within the
    managing of the systems.
