>It is a VPN connection.  

Larry,

I haven't played with UC since beta, but as I recall the encryption was
IPSec/L2TP. As I'm sure you're aware L2TP won't work across NAT since the
NAT proxy needs to change the addresses in the packet but it can't do that
because the packet is encrypted. 

At the time there was some talk about some specific router model (mostly
Nortel if I recall) that supported L2TP-Multihop that was basically a L2TP
connection from the iSereies to the NAT box and a different L2TP connection
from the NAT box to IBM. Thus the NAT box had access to the raw data and
could do it's thing. 

Has this changed? Can we now use VPN straight from iSeries to IBM over a NAT
translator. PPTP wouldn't have the L2TP problem, have they allowed PPTP?
