of course :) ! I guess I mean that the XS should be in a locked up cabinet. It will provide theft-deterrence to protect the XOs but without custom hw (that can do bitfrost or something similar) for the XS itself, you better ensure the XS is physically safe. Last time I paid attention to this aspect of security, the general consensus was that if you don't have physical security you are in a nasty bind. Our bitfrost firmware and custom hw make things better, but I'm not aware of any scheme *without* something like bitfrost that has a reasonable cost-benefit (or complexity-benefit) ratio. Perhaps you're thinking of something specific that's promising? cheers, m -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- School Server Architect - ask interesting questions - don't get distracted with shiny stuff - working code first - http://wiki.laptop.org/go/User:Martinlanghoff _______________________________________________ Server-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/server-devel
