The development direction is clearly towards ACLs.  In v6.0 you might 
notice that additional logging functions exist for ACLs that do not exist 
for conduits.

I would advise that you use either conduits or ACLs.  I would suggest you 
do not want to mix the two different commands as it makes the configuration 
very difficult for someone reading it (you, co workers, the TAC, etc,...) 
to figure out.

Of course, the PIX will do whatever it thinks you meant.

Jason,

I've heard that a number of folks have started work on such tools.  I have 
not seen anything published yet.  If anyone has something that is ready to 
show; I'd love to take a look and help test it.

Regards from New York,
