Hi, does anybody allow Compuserve access through their Firewall
(TCP port 4144)? Are there any security considerations, so long
as i only allow SYN's outbound? Are there any good places to read
up about this? I've got a user who wants this access.
 
Please reply by email if poss as I don't usually subscribe to this
mailing list (yes, it's good and interesting but a little too much
traffic for me normally).
 
TIA,

PS This is the 4th time i've send this, so apologies if you keep
   getting copies -- but i've been subscribing to firewalls-digest
   for the last couple of weeks and never seen my note appear --
   and because i've had no replies i'm still not absolutely sure
   whether it is getting delivered properly!
