So I sat down and came up with some simple additional source code to do it. Anyone interested can find out more about this and download source code diffs at: http://www.cs.utah.edu/~ldl/httpd-restricted.html I appologize for sending this to this email list since it's not about firewalls per-say, but as many of us are interested in increasing security particularly in acedemic environments I hoped people would find this acceptable however. Thanks. Cheers ;-) - -- Lou Langholtz (http://www.cs.utah.edu/~ldl/)
