DMCA mainly concerns itself with the breaking of copyright restrictions applied to media -- for example, e-books that are keyed to single user's account. The "CA" part is "copyright act" (without googling, I think the "DM" is "digital millenium"); the key is "copyright". No copyrights were violated in this teaching... But what you did was the equivalent of handing out the key to strangers (on the Barnes&Noble Nook, the "key" is the combination of an email address and a credit card number -- if you are willing to hand your email and CC# to a perfect stranger they can legitimately open the e-book file you gave them). In short, you "said": I give you total control over my server; do anything you want with it though I'd like for you to clean up my mess. -- Wulfraed Dennis Lee Bieber AF6VN wlfraed@ix.netcom.com HTTP://wlfraed.home.netcom.com/
