   The NetScreen 10 is probably find nat'ing the ipsec packets, just make sure   
   it's the latest firmware for it which I believe is 3.03r8 or something like   
   that.  Yes, it's an old box.   
      
   The NS10 is quite capable of doing a lan to lan vpn, I've still got clients   
   using pairs of those for corporate vpn concentrators, they're tough as nails   
   and very dependable.
