Keep in mind that netperf needs two open ports - one for the control 
connection and one for the data connection.

As far as an access control mechanism goes, it is pretty lame, but the 
2.6.0 and later versions of netperf/netserver include the ability to 
define a passphrase the netserver must see from netperf before it will 
allow a test to be run.  It is the global -Z option.
