Lines: 18 I am a student at Rutgers University and I do systems support work here on the side. At Rutgers, 99% of the time, in order to get onto the ARPAnet, one needs to present a grant number or one has to be involved in support. The DEC-20s provide a mechanism for control, and Dr. Hedrick has added code into the UNIX kernels so network access can be controlled. Furthermore, our gateways contain access mechanisms to restrict packets out onto the ARPAnet. Rutgers is particularly tight about access because at one point, we had our plug pulled. From what I understand, Berkeley and MIT are considerably looser about access. ...eliot -- [lear@rutgers.rutgers.edu] [{harvard|pyrnj|seismo|ihnp4}!rutgers!lear]
