You're expecting me to obtain one of those things for my system at home? And assuming that password type capable access protection is the only kind of protection I care about. Lets be a little reasonable please - access filters aren't dead yet (I would like to see them vanish, and I would hope that one day that might happen, today isn't that day). I will believe this has happened when cisco no longer support packet filtering in their routers. kre

I can certainly understand the need for access control & security, but with the use of a smart-card one-time password system, this is a moot point. Huh? How are you going to stop a system from "illegally" (in the sense of the provider, contracts, or whatever) acting as -say- www, ftp, or whatever server with such a one-time password system? You'll need access control *based on IP addresses* to reach that goal! Piet
