Gentle folk,

It is my understanding that there is a general policy to discourage
the connection of network devices like terminal servers which
do not include some form of login authentication or other means
of accountability.

Can anyone point me to any documents which formalize this restriction? 
While the need for such a policy is painfully clear to me, 
it is not so obvious to others.

Please send explicit references to one of my e'mail addresses below.
I'll post a summary.

Thanks,

Selden E. Ball, Jr.
