Unfortunately, the only other machine on the LAN is a WinNT machine, and I have
no idea how to generate syslog messages from that, or even if it is possible to
do so.

I guess I'm probably being overcautious anyway, since nothing enters the LAN

Hmm ... let me just double-check to make sure I've got that port blocked!
