Re: Cable & Wireless, Verio and/or Level 3 port blocking?

[Jared Mauch <jared () puck Nether net>]

        NTT/Verio is performing no network-wide port blocking
of such services.

        You might want to point out to this client that
without a VPN client, one can not be assured of
home-office workers, or traveling people not having issues
with the ports involved.
