I can try - the email address is below - remove the 999 part to reply to
me. I'm not a var or reseller, just a user/designer that likes their
products.
I would suspect that if the problem was loop-back related, and it has
something to do with your network (including the firewall) that you will
see this problem with other firewall products, not just watchguard.
