Hi Gary :)
   Tom Brandt basically gave a great how too on this :)  with the caveat
that for us we have to authenticate with our Firewall (this is good... keeps
out all the black hats while allowing us white hats in! hehe) the bad part
is that to do this on our firewall involves a Reflection or Minisoft telnet
session ....

   And the telnet session is so slow I think I am back on a 300 baud
acoustic coupler modem!!!  but it does the job and we get thru to our
3k's......Once we get authenticated by the firewall.... we open NS/VT
sessions to our 3k's and we be flyin'! ....

   The interesting thing is that when I connect to Milo (our 979) via the
network .... a "Gateway" listing gets created for the firewall as a active
but not default gateway!   Even after I removed the firewall gateway entry
in NMMGR and reset the network internet!
