As mentioned later, TP with transmit cut doesn't seem to
work -- to improve on your above solution, put an old DX33
back to back with the firewall/critical host using PPP or PLIP --
and syslog everyting to that box (run Swatch or Logsurfer
on it). It's more complicated than above (and you can't afford to cut
the TX wire on the RS-232 with PPP!), but you can eventually do more
with that box, like stick a modem on it.
Think I'll write up something and add it to the security Howto...
