In a forum like this it *is* appropriate to suggest alternatives that don't fully answer the question as asked, as it is archived and available publicly. Not all questions posed, along with their constraints, have a practical answer, and questions often have constraints which become irrelevant if an alternative view is taken. And if not exposed to the Net, a web server doesn't need much administration. If you want a Net presence, hire it, let someone else worry about getting hacked. -- Joe
