I know I should rtfm, but my view of PM docs is that they basically suck
(sorry Livingston) and need to close this vulnerability ASAP. Can someone
guide to the right place to look (using Linux, therefore command
interface) or paste the keystrokes. I still have a lot to learn about
filtering on this box.

Much oblidged.
