Dennis,
	Bravo! If adminstrators follow your advice the network systems
will be 1000 times harder to penetrate.  At least they will have done
the minimum required effort to protect their systems.  Security generally
requires one's best effort to prevent and detect.  It amazes me that we
have to have yearly events of this type to convince people that the
systems need improvement.  I have known about the security holes in Unix
for almost ten years.

Regards,
Alan
