If you want to follow just one rule, it's this:-
Instruct your users to never (I mean NEVER) use applications which run
over unencrypted protocols.
Security first.

Anyone have any recommendations for BCPs or software suggestions on
running an open community-based access point (or network)?
Think: an urban area where potentially lots of people could be popping
on and off with little authentication. These seem to be pretty
prevalent
around Panera's and other things -- I just don't know what they are
doing to manage (rather that prevent) P2P and Spam, etc uses.
Pointers very appreciated!!
Thanks,
DJ
