Yes all firewalls are software running on a piece of hardware. Pretty semantic though. Not all hardware is create equal though. As long as there is a firewall, then all is well. That is the point regardless of what flavor you like.

Using netfilter is way more powerful, in my opinion. Some dedicated filter rack modules ship with linux/netfilter now, though. -- Esben Stien is b0ef@e s a http://www. s t n m irc://irc. b - i . e/%23contact [sip|iax]: e e jid:b0ef@ n n _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list Asterisk-Users@lists.digium.com http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
