Can you set session vars denoting if they're accessing from an "approved"
PC?

I am looking to lock down certain types of access to particular machines.  I
was thinking about using cookies to tag the approved PC's.  How easy is it
for a User to copy a cookie from 1 PC to another?

Anyone have alternative methods that they've used?

Thanks,
Andy

Tie it in with NT authentication instead....
