Do you know how the firewall identifies a "friendly" network?  Does
the firewall tap into the wireless layer in Windows to get out the
SSID and base station MAC address, or does it just verify the
subnet?  I don't actually "use" any of my windows boxes, so I have
never used this kind of stuff :).




Doesn't Windows XP have file and print sharing enabled for the local
network so folks can share printers and files? If it's not enabled by
default I'm sure it is manually enabled often enough, and being on the
same 169.254.0.0/16 network would allow attacks over SMB, right?
