Hi Ryan_A,

I've chosen a different way instead of intervention by way of the TCP/IP connection for the rendering. To me the method I've chosen doesn't throttle on the gateway thus doesn't slow the GE. The alpha testing I've done so far shows this is a method I should concentrate on with the regards to protecting the KML Data from the 1-5 exercise I mentioned above. By the way, the 1-5 is successful in protection thus far.

To me any Network linking should challenge the user for the unauthorized use on the server side of the linkage. IMHO
