Hi JT,
Does anyone have any experience using the Linksys WITH Zone Alarm, does it provide any features that either product on their own do not? Thanks for any info.
First of all, I don't own any linksys firewall, but others (ranging from a Debian system up to GeNUA appliances...) ZoneAlarm has in my eyes a very interesting feature. As it runs on the clients' system it can distinguish which (local) application is allowed to send data to the net. In days of gator et al a very nice feature. This is rarely to be done at central firewall - how should it distiguish good and bad applications (ok, IP-filter could do something, but this filterlist has to be managed and updated...). So if an user knows how to use this personal firewalls, it is yet another step of security. greetings from munich, germany.
