Around this time of year, people share a lot of photos. Pictures of
friends, family, the kids, their pets, their Christmas trees etc. The
problem is that many of these people are chained to a Microsoft email

I can't speak for anybody else, but for me that's the majority of how I
do my setup. The only port open on my NAT box is ssh and since I have
that locked down pretty well on the application side, I don't firewall
it out (though I probably should).

I only know enough about networking to be dangerous,
so out of morbid curiousity (and also to stimulate
discussion) I'd be interested in comments about the

I thought that at its simplest a wireless access point
could be thought of as just another switch or a hub, ie.
it just connects one or more Enet interfaces into a
network. Everything else (bridging, routing, NATing,
DHCP, etc) should work the same for a wireless connection
as for a wired connec

Hi all - I have a sort of random question for you. I currently have a
