Operating VPNs with Netware 5 and NDS

[Saravana Ram]

I don't know whether NDS has a problem with NAT, but have you considered not
using NAT at all?

We currently have a point to point VPN's from London to Africa. The
config is:-
<London LAN><FireWall-1><Cisco 1720><Internet><Cisco 1720><Africa LAN>

The VPNs originate and terminate on the Cisco routers configured with
IPSEC. We employ NAT at both ends.The FW-1 provides NAT in London, the
1720 provides NAT on the African Router.

Our problem is this.
We will be rolling out a number of local and remote Netware 5 Servers
that require NDS replication. Apparently NDS does not work with NAT.

First of all am I correct in stating Netware 5 does not work with NAT.
Has anybody come across this before or have any ideas on solving this
problem.
