They may have legal relationship with the school but internet service can be considered to be an added service that there is not available until you actually ask for it. This is like parking - there are always some rules and regulations for when you use school garage (usually written on the wall or available from parking attendent), if you dont use the garage and park your car somewhere else (or don't have car at all), you don't have to bother with parking rules. Same for internet access - students don't have to use school internet access, they can buy internet access from some other ISP or they might not have a computer at all. But if they use internet access, they accept rules regarding it - i.e. AUP. -- William Leibzon Elan Networks william@elan.net
