Hi all
=20
I need some help on deciding which firewall I should use to secure my
intranet from the internet.
=20
I cannot decide which way to go , IPF or IPFW !
=20
Which one is recommended , easiest to configure and support.
=20
Can anyone please point me to some information explaining the =
difference
between IPFW and IPFW2.
=20
A document on IPFW vs IPF would also help.
=20
Thanks
Conrad =20
