I'll reiterate that things are functioning fine once I get a rule that
works the way I expect it to (I've been tcpdumping and testing as I make
changes to the rules.)  The box (a major plus) will not allow the traffic
when I have it seemingly configured correctly, but not to its liking- so
I think from a security perspective the box is doing the right thing-
we're just not speaking the same language, or the initial configuration
has some issues[1].  Once the rules are in place, I get fully functional,
including over reboots.

Watchguard has been good in getting hold of me and I have a support call
scheduled for this afternoon- we'll see how that goes, but so far they've
done all the right things and none of the wrong ones.
