[WEB4LIB] 802.11b networks for the public : keeping them *out * of our servers...

[Drew, Bill]

I would suggest submitting your question to the libwireless list I moderate
at:

libwireless at ls.suny.edu

You can join that list by sending a blank message to:

libwireless-subscribe at ls.suny.edu 


I don't know the details but I know that such things are done on various
802.11b networks.
