Argh.. forgot to CC to SLUG earlier..

We have snapgear units at the moment. I have verified that while yes,
you can do policy routing, you can't specify the individual vpn as the
destination because they all go through interface ipsec0 (at least
applicable for SG530 and SG560).

I can't tell for sure from the reference manual for the Netgear FVS114
for example whether it can do the required policy routing for two or
more destinations with the same LAN IP address range. It talks about
"classic routing" which makes me doubt it can do it. Also couldn't find
and occurance of "GPL" in the ref. manual.

After researching all sorts of things all day today I'm really happy to
find the following Aussie company website:-

http://www.yawarra.com.au

They supply all the small form factor stuff I want and OS's like
monowall and BSD on compact flash ready to go.

We used to do something similar for via boxen at EverythingLinux. Who
knows, the new owners Babel.com.au might revive some of that.
