Gareth,

After RTFM'ing it seems that NAT'ing with route maps creates a great deal of
flexibility while at the same time creating about five layers of complexity

And while were talking NAT and ACLs, its best to use route-maps with NAT
as they generate extended NAT entries i.e. src address/port and dst
address/port which ACLs dont do as they tend to create standard NAT
entriess.

See www.cisco.com for more useful information, as this 'bites' you if you
do multi NAT outsides to different address ranges.

Enjoy
