 We are running with closed registration, but I know there are many
internet services which can't get into the Lab and some which can't go
out either.  I talked to our network guru who said that this is all
done with a 'firewall' which does 'port filtering'.  Check with your
network people and see if they have a firewall and if so, filter out
your ADSM port (usually 1500).
