Yes, laptops are a problem but I did not go into a 6 page lesson on firewall usage.  I tried to quickly answer the question Dave was asking with the knowledge that I have on Dave's network setup.  Next time believe me rather than passing any information across the lists I will personally email the questioner and give them the specifics that they need for their network.

It's all good!  My post was meant more as "here's what I've been worried
about this week" than "yeah, but you missed something"! :-)

I try to post in this group from a mental standpoint of a peer, not as a
su'peer'ior!  The open feeling on this list, is why I've stuck around. 
Much more refreshing than *every* other list I'm on... where the
"elitism" runs rampant!

Hope this upcoming week goes better for you!
