Sure, that's what I understood in the former message, and already thought of doing it. The problem that I have (maybe it wasn't clear in my message) is that then I give an "obvious" *permanent* entry point to a network that is willingly closed. If anything happens (even if I'm quite confident with the security of the machine, we never know), it's my responsibility, and I don't want that. -- Ismael
