I'm interested. I mostly had hardware solutions in mind. Sites that would need multiple firewalls are very likely to have the resources to buy a hardware solution anyway. An example is the BIG-IP FireGuard: http://www.f5.com/f5products/bigip/fireguard/index.html And I'm sure Cisco has similar solutions as well. As far as software solutions go, I didn't hear of any, but I'm not sure if creating them is really worth the trouble. Then again, I can't say I'm not interested. -- Ivan Krstic - ike " life is the road beneath my feet, love is the girl I wait to meet, and art is everything I create, rob me of any and I will hate, you, my God, my devil, my fate " To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-security" in the body of the message
