:   Agreed.

We run behind a firewall. Something I've been considering is writing a
fake MUD frontend which turns into a telnet login (or whatever) after a 
particular chat sequence, and sitting it on 4201/8888/whatever. (Perhaps 
also blocking for five minutes after a fail.)

Or is the anti-access principle simply that no holes are better than one?
