   I suggested the double tunnel approach because I (mis)understood from   
   a previous reply that you didn't want to creat a permanent link   
   between the two firewalls.  I assumed this was because you were   
   worried that if outer firewall is compromised then this would then   
   provide access through your inner firewall over the tunnel.
