Wow, I didn't expect that flood of replies.

I want to qualify what my paper is made of, since the whole world now
seems to be interested in this little document.  Now I wish I finished 
it before I said anything.

o  It primarily looks at the mechanisms of logon security and 
   file security.

o  I didn't include known insecure protocols such as telnet, ftp, 
   finger, tftp, etc.
   
o  It's not finished.  It's not polished.  I wouldn't grade it.

o  It's mine, you can use the data, but don't publish it without
   my O.K..

o  I'd appreciate comments.

I did post it on a temporary page at http://www.hidata.com, the paper
is posted there in DOC, PDF, and PS formats.  The page will die next
Wednesday, since I will have other uses for that address.

Have at it.

Bill Stout
