Yes, but only this client will do it, and it closes the door once it
terminates. It is less of a security mechanism than overcoming one which
I don't know about. The client is a script which is agnostic to the
firewall settings chosen by the user, but needs to access data on the
outside. It will be run at rare intervals and the user will have
forgotten prerequistes by then.
