After getting a back-to-back DSLpipe-HST-2.3 to do NAT I can't telnet into the box.

I have two DSLpipe-HST talking to each other over a WAN between two buildings. The "remote" box has a public IP (as does the "local" box) and the remote box is doing NAT for the local 192.168.x.x/16 users. When I enable NAT, I can no longet telnet into the remote box. The telnet session times out. I can telnet into the remote box for a host attached to the remote box only, not for any upstream machine.
 
You need to configure a static map to allow incoming telnets. NAT by nature will block all incoming traffic. You need to forward telnet (TCP port 23) to your router's private IP address.
