"security", but having both the user and administrator configure a per host secret was apparently out of the question.
There is no such thing as "automatic security." That's an oxymoron. Any system that is "secure" without the ongoing burn of end-user brain cycles is subject to more-or-less easy subversion [a corollary of this is that "masses" will never be in situation to be both (1) end users and (2) secure. One can be a product and secure at the same time without effort, though.] And any system that (in theory) makes DNS foolproof will inevitably exclude any parallel name services. ===== end (of original message) Y-a*h*o-o (yes, they scan for this) spam follows: __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
