boy, i can't remember the last time i've been this involved with a fw-wiz thread. i've been thinking about this stuff ever since blaster... jim's made a completely brilliant point:
Some things that've no doubt helped: Relatively small company--only 150 or so desktops.
the reason i keep at this is that i *know* i can make things better on the network that i run. and so can jim, and paul, and marcus. if we cut down the size of the target audience enough, it's manageable, and we can make a difference. we might not fix the entire problem - hell, i don't know how to define the *entire* problem. but we'll make our little corners better. and all those corners being better does help. to abuse the medical analogy a little further: no one goes into medicine because they think they can cure *all* the sick people - or at least, that notion gets drummed out of them pretty early on. but not being able to do a complete job does NOT make doing the job altogether worthless. bring on the formaldehyde! _______________________________________________ firewall-wizards mailing list firewall-wizards () honor icsalabs com http://honor.icsalabs.com/mailman/listinfo/firewall-wizards
