OK - how does one configure NAT so that the source addresses of outbound
packets are NOT clamped to a configured range on the outside of the NAT
device? Given this general scenario, of course:

   Inside                                      Outside
   Nasty spoofing scum ----> NAT ---> helpless victims
                          Outbound --->

Honest question - just 'because I don't see it doesn't mean it isn't
possible :-) My NAT configs have generally been pretty plain vanilla.

Regards, K.
