:: The sticky point is wanting to run services. That means real :: world IP. :: At that point, how much traffic filtering should the ISP do? :: We would be intercepting *content*, a big can of worms. I don't see the problem here -- just a basic on/off filter for some of the common services would be a great starting point. :: For the situation you describe, there isn't really a need :: for a real world :: address. :: A combination of NAT and tunneling back into work would suit :: admirably. That :: would also allow you to appear to the rest of the world as :: originating from :: your office, thus allowing you to make use of the facilities there. :: :: It may not be an ideal solution, but its certainly a very :: practical one. Sort of, if I only worked for one place. Too limited for my needs, unfortunately. :: AFAIK, ADSL is across the IPNet network, and I think that :: getting anyone to :: introduce filtering there would be difficult :-) :: :: If you can manage to get them to do that, I'm sure a lot of :: us would like :: SNMP access to the IPNet NAS's we use... :-) I feel a story coming on... -- Juha --------- To unsubscribe from nznog, send email to majordomo(a)list.waikato.ac.nz where the body of your message reads: unsubscribe nznog
