Actually I should clarify.  If I understand you correctly, I would need to
put in an entry for each client NAS box, rather than just each client
PROXY box.  I don't know all the NAS IP's and they could change.  Can I do
this based on the Proxy IP only?  Use Regexp's to classify them by their
'short-name' when definining which default profile to use?

Again, thanks.

Dave
