The same way that you log into macconnect, but you only have to do it once. macconnect you have to sign in everytime you do it, but you just do that once with macsecure and then it remembers your computer, not need to log in again

Slightly off topic, but this is a speed that I clocked in Les Prince Hall a few months ago.

If that was the Waterloo server then this result doesn't really count. Waterloo servers are directly connected to Mac's through SHARCNET
