Title: Automatically adjustable passenger mirror for a trailered vehicle
Inventor: VALENTINO JOSEPH A
IPC: B60R1/072
Filed: 1997-12-17
Abstract: An automatic mirror rotation assembly for a vehicle including a tractor and semi-detached trailer is provided. An elongated arm supporting a rotatable wheel attaches to a support mounted at a selected position on the tractor chassis. The arm is pivoted upward until the wheel contacts the underside of the trailer, and is kept engaged with substantially constant pressure. As the vehicle turns, the rotation of the trailer with respect to the tractor is measured by counting rotations or partial rotations of the wheel against the underside surface of the trailer. A corresponding degree of passenger-side rear view mirror is calculated, and a motor automatically rotates the mirror. A feedback device measures the actual rotation of the mirror and feeds that information back to the assembly.

Title: Establishing a virtual private network for a road warrior
Inventor: MOON BRUCE
IPC: H04L9/32
Filed: 2005-01-13
Abstract: Methods and devices are provided for establishing a VPN tunnel for a user whose IP address is not known in advance (a "road warrior"). The road warrior first initiates a secure authentication session with a security gateway. In some such implementations, the road warrior provides a username/password pair that the security gateway compares to a database of usernames that have been authorized to initiate a VPN tunnel. After authenticating the road warrior, the security gateway then determines the IP address of the road warrior, then makes a correlation between the IP address, user, and a shared secret allocated to the road warrior. If the road warrior uses the proper shared secret in connection with a request to establish a VPN tunnel, the security gateway will establish the VPN tunnel.
