Sure I have, but have you ever seen FW-1 running on a production server
running NT 4 with all the production apps on it?

Not if it was setup according to CP specifications - the Firewall is
suppose to be a stand alone server with limited access.

Short of getting bridging firewall (same IP on both sides) there is
little the OP is going to do to protect the system (if the OP has
already followed the MS recommendations.)
