Exactly my point!  But so many universities and small ISPs are against it
with a vengance.  Like I keep saying, they are sharing one wall portal. I
know go to that keystone, find the hub and then go "Who's is this?"  Tell
them to clean up their machine because its infected and give them what I
know....ie: it was ip blah blah or sorry I can't tell you anything because
it was coming through your NAT box and all I see is a single IP.

Personally, shhh don't tell certain people who I know are lurking on this
list :)  But I ran a NAT box with 4 machines at one point.  An XP box for
my general use, an SGI box for development, a linux box for development,
and another linux box acting as my ftp server.
