Strange world we live in! One looks at a shop window and the heavy mob appear to harass you. Survellance capitalism in action? Or the sysadmin is so unsure of the network security in place that it requires drastic and immediate action to prevent a peep at services being offered? :) I was once reprimamaned by Amazon for nmapping my own network. That's what I call real devotion to stamping out network discovery. -- Brian.
