I believe there is also a domain authentication passthrough piece to Bluesocket. One thing we've used to get around this is allowing unregistered users to pass packets to our VPN server. They then use the Cisco VPN software to start the tunnel before they perform the Windows logon process. This allows the users to still authenticate in *some* way (VPN) while still allowing the NT auth process to take place.
