We will have to do something similar here. Since it's a public network, 
we are thinking about installing either a) an additional network agent 
on the actual network being managed by no-cat, adding a firewall rule to 
allow access to the policy servers' ports; or b) installing a policy 
server on the network managed by no-cat; or c) [this is what we'll 
probably go with] integrate websense with Squid as the required proxy 
server for all clients on the no-cat network.
