Hi Steven,

As usual your quality and prompt responses are truly helpful, thank you.

The setup is a little more complex than what I presented to make my problem
easyer, but....PIXes are VPN-ed Site to Site to all my domain sites and the
data center, two by two for redundancy, and it's been tested, the best
perfomance and reliability for vpn-ing is the cisco vpn client, so after
years of using it without any probs, that would be a hard task for me to
convince them to change it to win native software.

I could make the vpn connection through the pix transparent and the users
would be able to surf the net , but then I would expose the network to the
home and mobile pc's infected with all kinds of bs; therefore my only
solution is to find out how to give them access by
using ISA as webproxy.

Thank you,
