So you would force YOUR laws upon another sovereign nation? You would force your moral views upon another? The answer to the question under windows is no, however. Unless you do a bit of hacking of the source code. I seem to recall that it WAS an option long ago, but has been disabled. I'd imagine that it would be possible more easily under *nix. *I* used the older version to silently look in on my children's activities when they were online. And I am thankful that I did as I found out that my daughter was involved with an abusive boyfriend. Or should her privacy been paramount and you could console my family after he beat her to death or raped her? I also find it interesting that the same people who complain so loudly on the subject, who lobbied so hard to have said laws passed also lobbied to have laws passed that make the business responsible for ALL employee activities on the net. As an employer I am civilly and criminaly responsible for unlawful employee use of my network systems, but and not permitted to monitor the employee activities?! No WONDER companies are moving off shore. The laws in the nations they are moving to are FAR less restrictive when it comes to corporate concerns protecting their interests (and don't remind everyone of abuses of the past, mud can be slung both ways and never prove the validity of the position in the end). If *I* am responsible for the use of my network and computers, then *I* will monitor the damned things. Having it both ways means ending up having it no way. -----Original Message----- From: Carlos E. R.

The "evaluating our employees job" using a stealh connection would be illegal in many countries (at least without a court order). I don't think you have a legitimate reason to do that, sorry. -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson -- Check the headers for your unsubscription address For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the archives at http://lists.suse.com Please read the FAQs: suse-linux-e-faq@suse.com
