Wow, I wish I could get this many replies to my other email threads...
Maybe I'll just stick it in here :)
I'm doing a school project on securing a network of insecure machines
without doing anything to the client machine (basically by using a
linux/bsd gateway)
But I need a good alternative to NAT or SSH tunneling, as NAT is too
insecure, and SSH tunneling requires to much work to be done on the
client machine.
Any ideas? Thanks!
Danny

P.S. I've removed that comp from the mailing list, and I'll try to
convince my dad to put AV on it, although I doubt he will.
