Well, if I was to use a Linux box as the router, I have enough faith in
myself to be able to script that, and don't need Cisco's help...especially
seeing how we have a buncha cabletron stuff here! :)

Johnathan's idea was good as well, but we don't really want to worry about
a proxy, which in my opinion would limit what they could do, which is
something I don't want to deal with - I remember being a student! :)
