Hey ya'll :)

Recently I read a post here in the Firewalls list for which I desperately
need a follow up.  The post declared there was a new Federal(?) mandate that
router Banner's must include a statement which warns of the illegality of
unauthorized access to the device.  This would be needed in order to be able
to prosecute a hacker for illegally gaining access to the device.

Does anyone remember that post?  Can somebody lead me to the source ... or
to a point where I can 1) get confirmation that such a requirement now
exists...and 2) specifically what is needed in the MOTD to fulfill this
requirement?

The reason I'm in a bit of a hurry (isn't everyone these days?) is that we
are about to deploy a massive infrastructure IOS upgrade and we will be
accessing several hundred routers in the next weeks - and I'd sure love to
get this issue into the goop along with it.

I invite any respondents to post here in the lists...however, I'd sincerely
appreciate any concrete input be cc'd directly to my email address to ensure
I get it at earliest.  Thanx ... :D
