   in esp-tunnel mode (which you'll be using) the initiator proxy is a 192,   
   which the pix will see. esp takes the whole ip-packet, encrypts it and   
   adds a new header, which is modified by the pix's nat-mechanism.   
      
   why this _could_ work:   
      
   * host-routes are higher-weighted than network-routes   
   * inbound-nat on ipsec-packets   
   * nat-traversal   
      
   the solution to bypass this problem is to use ike-config. the pix gives   
   a dhcp-address to the ipsec-client, and _only_ to the ipsec-client.   
   doesn't provide dhcp to normal lan users. you have to modify the   
   access-lists to pass the virtual ip's. and the client has to be   
   configured to obtain a virtual ip-address.
