We're about to get hooked up to SURAnet, and thence to the Internet.
There are some concerns here about suddenly making Internet ftp and
rlogin a reality for many hundreds of students.

Our first thought is to draft some kind of document stressing that it
is impolite and possibly illegal to snoop around the net or try to
break into other systems.  This document would be distributed along
with accounts.

How do other campuses handle this issue?  Is it handled?  Has there
been much incidence of problems?  We tend to have very aggressive and
adept students here, so our concern is more than just the usual
paranoia :-)
