Thanks for the input I have received on safe configurations for the Sidewinder G2. After reading all the responses which pretty universally confirmed my instinct that it would be less than clever to have sendmail running on a firewall, I began to doubt that I had heard the tech guy who recommended it correctly. So I checked the manual which recommends as most secure the following... "Host the DNS and sendmail servers directly on your firewall. The operating system should be better protected against a wide-range of exploits." PlanningGD.PDF from Secure Computing. This represents a very different approach than what was suggested here. Any ideas why? Who is right? BTW, I hope I haven't broken any intellectual property (the other ugly "IP" in our little world) laws by reproducing the quote from the manual. If so I apologize and plead ignorance. It is reporduced here ONLY for educational purposes.
