It seems to be a common misunderstanding that flexresp actually works well and is usable as a reliable alternative to a firewall.
Seems there are some that jump to the conclusion that flexresp's "only" use is as a firewall. It works very well for a number of other functions, and closely emulates functionality available in some commercial applications that are not sold as an IDS. But, the warning should still be included in the documentation. :) ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email sponsored by: Free pre-built ASP.NET sites including Data Reports, E-commerce, Portals, and Forums are available now.
