I have a related question.

I want to create an account which can only reach
the HTTP server on the local LAN (same one the PM
is on). I don't want this account to be able to
access the internet (i.e., see the router). In fact,
I'd prefer it not get DNS service so it could *really*
only see the HTTP server and nothing else (the user
would hit pages that only use IP addresses in their
links). The application is sign-up for service.
I.e., I want *anybody* to be able to dial in and
fill out signup forms, using a special userid/password,
but I don't want that account (which might likely
appear in advertisements) to have any further
useful privileges.
