I also know that there are attacks that can be made without requiring return packets at all - those I have to deal with in other ways (smart card password schemes most certainly aren't it) regardless of what kind of address (statically assigned, or dynamically assigned) my brother gets.
Yes, I understand completely. Actually, we could go back and forth like this forever, punching holes in secure access control methods. Let's just agree that without strong end-to-end encryption, its all swiss cheese. :-) - paul

Let's just agree that without strong end-to-end encryption, its all swiss cheese. :-) Yes, though with the caveat that without static addresses the cheese is rather rank, and suitable for nothing at all, with static addresses (relaly stable known addresses) so filtering is possible at least a little first level protection is possible. kre
