Hello Lyndon,

# No doubt. I first read about this several (at least three) years
# ago in one of the Usenix Security Conference proceedings. The paper
# described an implementation that had been done for 4.4BSD. I can
# try to dig out a reference if anyone's interested.

	As for me, I'm _very_ interested. This smells like FreeBSD
	will be able to prove it's technical superiority to the people
	(both users and ISPs and possibly to the corporate guys too)
	due to presence of such a feature.

#     Jordan> next month. Prices start at $10,000 on Digital Unix and
#     Jordan> comes with DEC's own Firewall Unix, $3,600 on PCs.
# 
# Har dee har har har.
