You forget. This is America. The Govt doesn't care what you do, as long as it controlls it (c.f. the key-escrow farce). The land of freedom (to be controlled by the people you alledgely elect). All I can say is I will never trust a government which blatantly lies about the (alledged) non-existance of the worlds longest runway. And the top secret research centre which does not live alongside it. > One of the initiatives of the NLIP has been the 'Internet > Hotline against child pornography' .(http://www.xs4al.nl/~meldpunt) > This as well has had alot of positive effects and influence.

X-TEN power controllers. Or have a machine with a bunch of specially wired modems. The on-hook relay on the modem is wired to the reset switch. Simply connect to the right modem, try to dial, and viola, one reset pc. Gary -- Gary Palmer FreeBSD Core Team Member FreeBSD: Turning PC's into workstations. See http://www.FreeBSD.ORG/ for info
