	I didn't say "not possible /to do well/" because I thought that was

	For in-process servers of course you'd need group access. But for
out-of-process, local connections it's still a security hole, and a bad

	With that said, however, I'm beginning to think that Windows Vista
will kill local access via memory mapped files.
