[MLUG] Napster

[Enickohasan <EMAIL:PROTECTED>]

I was reading the article in Student News about MP3's and napster.  I
already knew that several colleges had banned it altogether.  I hope that
MU never goes this far but...

My real question is about how would you enforce a ban on a program like
this?  Can a university legally sniif out my traffic and see what I'm
downloading or what people are downloading from my computer?  Or would it
be more of a traffic monitoring to see how much goes in and out?

I'm not sure about what they can legally do with or without a search
warrant, so I was wondering if one of the awesome network admins that are
on this list could possibly shed more technological light on this than the
Student News could do.
