But, I've never had any problems with Dennis. Great products, we still have some in our network eventhough we've standardized on Cisco (hardware costs less than experienced unix networking people, IMHO). Dennis's stuff works and works well, but you have to be at a certain level to be able to use them and receive the small amount of help the experienced unix professional might need. Touchy warm, fuzzys are not included in the Etinc purchase price. The people who tend to complain loudest about Dennis are those who don't know how to hack the kernel or properly set up a *nix-like box to route. Most people see a very low cost alternative to build a very powerful router and get in over their heads trying to make it work--it's more like miss-matched expectations than a poor company or person at the helm. Those with personal grudges against Dennis may wish to debunk my humble opinion. Flame on. --jeff ============================================================================ Jeffrey A.
