Folks, I had hoped that the MAC numbers (Media Access Control) assigned to each computer would be a way I could prevent the outside world from gaining access to my servers that we are just now getting on line. I had so hoped that I could program a router to allow only those MAC numbers we had listed but alas I now understand it is ONLY internally on the same network.
What a bummer, is there no way to do something like this for the outside world? It would be SUCH a secure way to be on the internet, with private servers, by only allow computers in that you said were eligible. Any ideas? Many thanks as always. John Sorry Lee, I keep using the wrong email to post. _______________________________________________ MacGroup mailing list [email protected] http://www.math.louisville.edu/mailman/listinfo/macgroup
