You *DO* have to add firewall rules to allow the packets to be forwarded,
and the IPSec traffic to get in/out of the box.  You should *NOT* have to
directly play with any routing...the FreeS/WAN scripts should set all the
routing up when the connections get built.

NOTE:  If you have [left|right]firewall=yes, you shouldn't have to worry
about the firewall rules either...
