IPSec tunnel not working through ASA

I am having a fit trying to configur an IPSec tunnel through our ASA 5505.  We are attempting to connect multiple Netgear FVS318v3 routers on our internal network through the ASA to a hosted Cisco VPN concentrator.  The Netgear connects up fine and we can access the hosted network fine from several remote locations (including my home which is NAT'd by a Linksys router) as well as if we bypass the ASA and connect directly to our ISPs router.  However, when connected to the ASA the VPN tunnel shows established, but no traffic will pass either way across the tunnel.

The ASA is running version 8.0(4).  I have allowed IPSec, isakmp, and UDP 4500 on the ASAs external interface and also enabled NAT-T.  I have also verified that the hosting company has NAT-T enabled on the concentrator.

I'd like to avoid static NATing a public IP to each device inside as when these go out into the field they will be used on a myriad of networks.  Including placing multiple routers on a single network with a NAT'd Internet connection.  Any ideas are greatly appreciated and just let me know if more information is needed.

Did you check the logging on the asa? Did that show anything?
could you post your config?

I turned debug logging on for IPSec passthrough and attempted to ping a server on the remote network.  The only entries I found in the logging that looked remotely relevant were these:

%ASA-7-609001: Built local-host outside:64.XXX.XXX.XXX
%ASA-3-305006: regular translation creation failed for protocol 50 src inside:19
2.168.2.204 dst outside:64.XXX.XXX.XXX
%ASA-7-609002: Teardown local-host outside:64.XXX.XXX.XXX duration 0:00:00

Where 64.XXX.XXX.XXX is the remote concentrators IP and 192.168.2.204 is the address of the Netgear on the network behind the ASA.

regular translation creation failed for protocol 50 src inside:192.168.2.204 dst outside:64.XXX.XXX.XXX

Protocol 50 is ESP which is used for IPSec. So it looks like you didn't allow that (or not completely correct).
Perhaps you could post a sanitized configuration here so we can have a look at it.

Do you have a rule like:
access-list outside_access_in extended permit esp host x.x.x.x host y.y.y.y
?
Damn! that fast :)
Ok, so you got the ESP.

Let me check on the config.
It does not look like NAT-T is taking place, which side is initiating traffic.  The error you posted is exactly what you would expect to see with out NAT-T.
I have a PC attached to the Netgear which then attaches to the ASA5505 which connects us to the Internet.  I have heard back from the hosting company and the device on the other end is an ASA5520.  They have double verified that NAT-T is enabled and port 4500 is open on their end.
@Cheever000

Sorry, just realized I didn't really answer your question.  The Netgear is initiating the tunnel and I have been testing by attempting to initiate traffic from the PC to servers on the hosted network.  I have also attempted to ping in the reverse direction though.
They have double verified that NAT-T is enabled and port 4500 is open on their end

Did they also check the inspect rules:

policy-map global_policy
 class inspection_default
  inspect pptp
  inspect ipsec-pass-thru

?
I'm working to get a copy of the running config from their ASA which I'll post here asap.  Any other questions or info I should be requesting from them?
Not yet. I think it is a good idea to first have the remote config. After that the questions might come automatically ;)
Here is a fairly sanitized running config from the ASA 5520 on the remote end.

A bit of devils advocate before I calll them on this.  Isn't "crypto isakmp nat-traversal 20" the default for ASAs now?  i.e. it wouldn't show up in the config unless it was turned off or the timeout was changed.  I've asked them to double check previously and they sent me a screenshot from ASDM with the box for NAT Traversal checked.
