I have to enable 4 users that are using a cisco vpn dialer that need to pass through our pix 515 firewall that is using NAT and connect to a remote site that we do not control. The vpn dialers work fine via dialup so I know it is the pix. Anyone ???
 
You need to ope UDP port 500 and IP protocol 50 (ESP) and you also need a static translation. Alternatively you can enable fixup protocol esp-ike This option is available only if you are running 6.3 on the PIX. You can also enable NAT-T on the headend device and open UDP port 4500 as well if the headend device supports NAT-T.
 
So i would have to map my public ip to a private,

would it be a static(outside,inside)
 
It would be static (inside, outside)... However it's not the only option as previously advised you can also enable fixup protocol esp-ike on your PIX as long as you are running 6.3.X or enable NAT-T on the remote device if supported.
