According to James C. Slora Jr.:
I'll stop worrying about securing Intranet devices and applications, and use 192.168.1 addressing as my only security measure from now on. </sarcasm>
<nitpick>You forgot the opening sarcasm tag</nitpick> :) Regarding all those posts about "but it's only an internal access, so don't worry": Last year, Forrester published a report that estimated 85% of the security problems came... from the inside of the network. Whether it's a disgruntled person, or simply a tele-operated zombie PC, your internal network is as much a source of threat as the internet. There's less threats inside, but, because they ARE inside, they are more likely to succeed. And saying that 192.168.* is a security measure is about as accurate as sticking your head in the sand and thinking no one can see you. -- Vincent Archer Email: archer () tms frmug org All men are mortal.
