A similar setup in a prepacked form can be found here: http://vsc-dev.itsp.purdue.edu/ Purdue did away with their ISS scanner in favor of this solution. It works very well. I'm hoping to upgrade to this version this summer.
For the folks who are using a solution like this, can you tell me how Service Pack 2 has affected its usability? Common sense would say that a host-based firewall turned on by default on 80% of my desktop machines would make any significant purchases in desktop scanning sw/hw a waste. But I could be wrong, it's happened before. Regards, -Peter -- Peter Moody <peter () ucsc edu> Information Security Administrator 831/459.5409 Information and Technology Services.
