Oh no David not at all. You're stuck in a very 80s mind set. Having the
dongles available anywhere, anytime is exactly the reason I want to keep
all our docs' dongles on a USB keychain stuck in the server. Frankly, I
don't trust them to not to lose them. With them always safely available
in our computer room all they need to do is connect over a secure link
and start working. Throw in Horst's blackdog and they can probably do it
from an internet kiosk.
