My ISP is Earthlink, and each person I have asked there says it is ok.  My
DNS entry has been fixed, and I can access mulliganvalley.org from outside
my LAN.  There's nothing there except a simple test file.

If anybody has any security tips, I'm all ears.

Does anybody here have any experience with Enhydra?
