- We've decided to get an internet link here, in fact we've already paid the
- start up fee and first month's fee. Problem is, high-level people in other
- departments sorta paniced when they heard about it. We've now got a big
- brouhaha going on around here with me in the middle (good thing I've got
- my boss and the VP of engineering on my side).
-
- To aid in my fight I need to both extoll the benefits of an internet link,
- and address their (valid) security concerns. I've bought Gene Spaffords
- book on Unix Security and will be reading it this week, but can anyone
- give me some pointers for addressing these two issues? Thanks.
