Bit rash that, Brian...we must have an expert on the LUG, surely?

If Alastair is handling radiological images, then there are presumably 
medical 
ethical issues to be dealt with which will presumably militate for a closed, 
private network solution. Trouble is we don't know enough about the context. 
Where is it being distributed to? What is the content? How big? what level 
of 
security is required? and so on and so on.

Happy to discuss it Alastair, but off-list I think.
