Correct me if I am wrong but I thought that with Nfuse 1.7 that you did not
need to set altaddr on the mf servers any more?

It really is a matter of exposure.  CSG is cheap to implement aside from the
2 servers, and it allows you to secure your boxes.  My users can no longer
make direct connections to my Citrix boxes over the altaddr, and I think
that's great.
