Re: Firewall best practices

["Darden, Patrick S." <darden () armc org>]

Howdy Paul, 

I wasn't trying to differentiate between experts and beginners, but
rather experts and people who can't be bothered to do it right.  I don't
think I indicated that the question was out of order--and in fact I
tried to answer it, and explain my answer.

Sorry I wasn't more clear,

I'm going to throw this out there again[1] because it's probably been
half a decade or so since I last said it-  The demise of the Chapman
firewall mailing list means that there simply aren't a lot of good
resources for the beginner, the curious or the uninitiated.  In that
regard, I'm more apt to approve basic questions and "How do I do *splat*
on my PIX?" than Marcus was.  The list can't afford to "just tackle the
Wizard questions" IMNSHO.
