Until very recently, I used VNC in a very similar environment, including
the Cisco VPN.

In my case, the Cisco VPN Concentrator was not "outside" the Pix
firewall, but parallel to it.  So when I establish a VPN connection, I
am not going through the firewall at all.

Can you access other services/servers going through this same setup?
Ie, when you have a VPN connection established, can you surf a web
server that is also located behind the VPN concentrator & Pix firewall?
