PIX issue

We moved to Netscreen to get away from such issues.  Easier to use
interface.  We are also considering adding a Sidewinder2 as Secure
Computing offers a trade -in and on Dell's appliance box with 3 year
warranty we would not worry about maintenance issues.  The SG2 does
filtering at the application layer which would be less likely to allow
Nachi to even get in.  PIX really only does packet filtering and you
have to worry about too many work arounds as new bugs are detected.
