What I'd like to know is how *safe* is the login from this windows machine? I mean, can my login to my FreeBSD server at home be *monitored* by someone while I'm using this windows machine at work? Can the keystrokes that I use *in* PuTTY be seen by anybody on this windows network at work. If so, what can I do about it to be more safe? I would like to be able to login to my home computer without being worried about some sneaky system operator at work (school) ;-) -- dick -- http://nagual.st/ -- PGP/GnuPG key: F86289CE ++ Running FreeBSD 4.11 ++ FreeBSD 5.3 + Nai tiruvantel ar vayuvantel i Valar tielyanna nu vilja
