Hi,

we use NG with W2K at one of our customer sites and it works fine. But
it is very important to install the Hotfix-2. Than the problems with ARP
and W2k are solved.

But if you don't need the new features (e.g Active directory
Authentification) you should waite until the release of Service Pack 1
for NG. SP1 is right now in Betatesting and it will be propably ready
for release in december. With SP1 there are also some improvements
building VPN sites.

We run NG on NT4.0.  We don't use the vpn portions, so I don't know how
it does with vpns.  It works well as 'just' a firewall.
We did find that there were still some big problems trying to run NG on
W2K.  There were nat problems, and routing issues to do with how W2k
handled arp.

Hi

Couple of resellers say they won't implement/support NG yet - probably
not
for another few months or so.

Also couldn't see any NG-specific training in their schedules.

We need to upgrade FW soon (few weeks or so) and must make choice 4.1 or
NG.


Questions:-

1. What are others doing ?
2. Any idea if this is widespread attitude amongst resellers - is it
really
too risky to implement NG for 3 site VPN at the moment ?
