        !            17: 
        !            18: Fine, but my use really fits better under the administrative heading
        !            19: than the random user heading, in the long term.  Also, I am willing
        !            20: to do whatever I can to help with the general adminstration setup.

        !            27: 
        !            28: The long term plan is to do exactly that.  However, we have to do it
        !            29: with subnets; we aren't going to be able to get all the AT&T networks
        !            30: into the ARPA tables, so we have to present them with a single network
        !            31: face.  This means migration to our class A network number.  From what I
        !            32: can gather, this will take considerable time.  It's going to require smb's
        !            33: DKIP running under 4.3BSD, for example.
        !            34: 
        !            35: Also, my long term need for administrative access doesn't go away.  I'm
        !            36: thinking primarily of the mail gateway and nameserver function.  If that
        !            37: will be done on ulysses instead of mhuxc, and mhuxc is nothing but a
        !            38: packet forwarder, then what I'll really want access to is ulysses.
