SubjectWhat are they?
Hi Gordon.

I have to admit to wondering what some of these acronyms stand for,
and not having any details on it, so perhaps somebody could
elucidate...

>>> *tunneling* is in the kernel, but not *masquerading*. Is this

In that one email, there are two acronyms which don't appear to make
sense, so perhaps somebody can decode them for me...

Q> GRE = Grampian Railway Enthusiasts [Club]
Q> PPTP = Publicity, Promotions & Training Panel

Presumably, those are the wrong meanings thereof...

Best wishes from Riley.
