To intercept the "Me too" requests, I post this to the list.
There is an FAQ and a mailling list- the FAQ is available via
ftp.greatcircle.com (or web over to www.greatcircle.com).
READ THE FAQ (and perhaps checswick and bellovin's "Firewall's
and Internet Security" (available at your geek bookstore))
BEFORE you post to the firewalls list
to subscribe, mail to "majordomo@greatcircle.com" with the BODY saying
subscribe firewalls (or firewalls-digest or simply:
help for majordomo help and information)
----
There is also information about ALL the past firewalls digests archived
on greatcircle.
Please do not flood the firewalls list with "what's a firewall".
There are conversations in progress. Observe. Be patient. Learn.
