Tim, you said:
The TCP sequence number is what RTM and SMB wrote about.  This is
different - you don't need root anywhere to to that.

You do need priveledged access to a machine to send out arbitrary
packets.  (Any mac or dos user is priveledged).


What does that mean?  I said you don't need root - I don't need root on
a mac or on a PC.  There is no concept of priviledge on macs or PCs.
