[c-nsp] MTU woes with tunnels

Hi all

We have a problem where all MTU settings where working before reboot of 
the hub.
Now (after reboot) some sites are unreachable from windows clients and 
I cant seem to resolve the issue.

All equipment is cisco except the NAT router who is a linksys (though 
one end point is PIX and has the same issue).
Changing the MTU on the NATs does nothing.

Toppology is something like this:

6503/Sup32 ----------[ tunnel0 ]----------  1801 ----- NAT
      |                                                                  
|
      ------------------------[tunnel1]--------------

Where tunnel0 is over our net and tunnel1 is over the internet for 
fallback.
