A good way to proceed here may be to put yourself in the client's head. The President has a sticky situation and respects your creative ability. You can't help him this time because there's no technology available to do the trick. You (or the CIO :-) can, however, suggest that the President confer with _other_ creative problem solvers such as the Provost, Public Relations, and General Counsel. They may be able to suggest appropriate action that serves the President's ultimate need. Rand Rand P. Hall Director, Network Services askIT!
