SBS with Branch Office

I'm running SBS 2003 Premium w/SP1 (not R2) and all is running well. We're
in the process of setting-up a remote/branch office. We'll be using a
hardware VPN/firewall appliance at both ends by a company called Fiber Logic.
The Fiber Logic 2120 device that's at our home office is outside of our SBS
ISA2004 in somewhat of a DMZ. Our SBS server does have twin NICs with the
standard 192.168.16.* internal subnet and the external NIC has a valid/legal
IP.

My question is how do I correctly pass the VPN connection from my home
office VPN device into my internal SBS subnet through ISA2004? Also, should
my branch office use the same 192.168.16.* subnet for those PCs? I do plan
to setup a branch office BDC running Windows 2003 Server to help improve
performance so that all of the authentication occurs locally to the branch
office users. I'm guessing that the branch office server should use
192.168.16.3 and have DNS installed as well.

Thanks for any suggestions.

Ken
