Although FWTK may well be outdated, there are still a lot of people
running it. There are even more running potions of it such as the FTP
proxy, and the telnet proxy. Although outdated there are still uses for
it as far as I am concerned. If anyone has any better suggestions for
free FTP and telnet proxies, I am all ears.

Recently, on the old firewalls list, mjr's recomdnation wa that folks
might find FWTK quite outdated and wish to seek something more current
to fit their needs.  You would not have to look to far back in that
lists archives to find the discussion.

Thanks,

I know this is a trick question, but from a very high/abstract level, 
I'm mulling over an internal firewall platform (tier 2/3 of the FW 
layout facing the DMZ) which will support some application proxying
and (preferrably) content scrubbing, with free or real
cheap being a big component.  Proxy needs aren't all
that complex.

Right now, mostly have T.Rex and FWTK on the list.
Might take a peek at this Zorp product, but haven't
seen anyone really get their hands into it yet. 
Anyone have other recommendations, or comments on the
current selection?

I know mjr's involvement with FWTK, any comments about
it as compared to others?
