At ver 8.3 (server & 390G) The USB does work also. In this case the kbd =
and mouse are usb, so diabling the port is not an option. Also, our =
monitors are usb hubs. Since we keep our stations in locked =
cabinets(isolated) nobody can access the usb ports! But...the usb ports =
on the monitors hub for the Kbd/Mouse have two extra ports as well as =
its really easy to unplug the mouse and plug in a memory stick....so =
disabling the usb is really kinda impossible. This leaves a hole in =
security!=20
How would you address this issue? Use PS2(not shipped from Foxboro)
Pc --->usbkvm--->monitor/4porthub--->mouse
\-->keyboard
\--> open port
\--> open port
I was thinking superglue or bubblegum....:))
Is there software that will limit the type of device that can be =
detected by usb ports? That would only allow keyboards and mice?
