By which IP address? LAN (do they know how to get a different IP on
their box)? WAN (use a different server)?
Theoretically they could alter their IP addresses to one of their
siblings and use their allocation. They could also physically bypass
the firewall and plug the internet connection directly into the
switch.
I completely agree that IPCop and it's addons are more suited to a
home situation but, hey, that's where I'm using it!
