i want to restrict a particular method of my product to a set of IPs. i was thinking of creating a user limited to those IPs, and assigning it a local role which corresponds to the particular method. is there a better way? thanks -d -- Adroit | Dyon Balding dyon@adroitnet.com.au Internet | http://www.adroitnet.com.au/ Solutions | work: +613 98888522, mobile: +61 0414992604
