Hi, I'm Patrick Horgan, and I'm new to this list. I currently help support a few hundred sun workstations which sit at a commercial site behind a firewall. Just because I'm the one that cares about it, the last few years I've become a sort of security "expert";) and gadfly. In a couple of weeks, I'm going to move to a group that will develop a firewall product for market. I also help the administrator of the current firewall here with my programming skills. I'm also the guy that's added pasv to a lot of the ftp clients around and made them available for anonymous ftp. It lets you use ftp from behind a firewall without having to let incoming connections in. Patrick These opinions are mine, and not Amdahl's (except by coincidence;). ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ / | | (\ \ | Patrick J.
