Re: DMCA Notices

[Miguel Hernandez <miguel.hernandez () DOMAIL MARICOPA EDU>]

Doesn't the PA5050 have the ability to tie into active directory?  One
thought I've had was to use that functionality and make exceptions for
bittorrent after having faculty go through an exception process.  Mind you,
I do not have a PA, but after a few presentations, my team and I have
brainstormed such a scenario to help.  Not sure how viable this option is,
but in theory it seems do-able.
