it's a matter of the housing department protecting its
bandwidth via policy that forbids servers and p2p applications.

if teh claim is that you are protecting bandwidth why don't you
limit per-user bandwidth?  (imo - all that banning p2p and monitoring
for it does is to teach students to use the versions of the software that
mask what they are doing under port 80 or the like)
