All of the above plus very poorly managed network / network security. (sadly a Given(tm) for anything ending dot-e-d-u.) a) why are *printers* given public IPs? and b) why are internet hosts allowed to talk to them? I actually *very* surprised your printers are still functional if the whole internet can reach them. Being an edu, even if they aren't globally reachable, there is *plenty* mischievousness already inside the borders! Securing a campus from the world... easy; securing a campus from it's own users... good luck with that. --Ricky
