Ok, fine. Call it access control then. Let me rephrase the question.
 
Any good internet access control software for the 3000? Or are we writing
the first?
 
Also, for some of our clients, they do not control the router within their
organization and therefore they CANNOT implement much of the needed control
except at the 3000 which itself does not have any control (yet.. until we
install our access control software).
 
My PC at home running Linux (from which I am writing this message) has better
internet security, IMHO.
 
Anyone have encryption software for the 3000 for secure VT connections? I
don't like people being able to snoop my login passwords. Has anyone tried
to implement kerberos on the 3000? It has POSIX, after all...
