Hi Greg,

     About "Web access, false BBS ID" of October 31:

     I would have refered you to somebody else relatively to this topic,
it's a relief when the right question is addressed to the right guru and
vice versa...  Security is relative, i don't suggest to revise ~TelNet~.

                                    Salutations,
