Not as much as you might think. On my work-from-home computer (WFH), which, unfortunately, is Win2k, there are 2 NICs, 1 for the outside world (that is connected to the cable modem via a switch), and 1 for the internal LAN. When I fire up the VPN s/w (which I configured to use the "outside NIC"), it disables the "inside NIC", thus closing off a bad security loophole. -- +-----------------------------------------------------------------+ | Ron Johnson, Jr. Home: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | Jefferson, LA USA | | | | "I'm not a vegetarian because I love animals, I'm a vegetarian | | because I hate vegetables!" | | unknown | +-----------------------------------------------------------------+ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
