Just out of curiosity, are there any other solutions out there? 

We are looking at EKM soultion but are not really happy with it or TKLM.

Lucy,

If you go the way of ekm and run into questions, I think I have most of the 
answers.

I implemented EKM at my shop and am well versed in its usage.  It is basic but 
it works well.
