Well, correct me if I´m wrong but doesn´t FW-1 check the source adress against it table of permitted GUI clients? If the packet comes from a non-permitted client it just discards it. But, I could be wrong.

FW-1 appears to simply ignore everything that isn't strictly what it wants. Clearly, I don't have the definitive answer on this subject. Perhaps someone with more time could take this ball and report their results? -s Scott Blake, Network Security Architect Netegrity, Inc. blake () security com
