Hi Dan,

G> Absolutely.  Thankfully, the only Windows around here is my wife's 
G> desktop, so I only have to turn it off once.  ;-)

Yeah, at John Deere, they had so many problems becaue HQ -insistred- on �leaving
WF on and every time we had to update Windows via SCCM, that firewall �would
break and a manufacturing line would go down which was an expensive �process. 
I'd log into the master controller system for that line, disable WF, �and nine
times out of ten, the line would magically work again.

Just doing my job!

I am looking at moving from pfSense on my edge firewall to OpenWRT.  OpenWRT
�looks to be easier and much more functional for me since it has so many
�extensions.  I'll probably put that off until next month.  The next few weeks
�are going to be busy for me.

I am also converting dozens of CIDR ranges to subnet so I can use the �built-in
port of AIX's firewall in ArcaOS.  With ports 22 and 23 closed, I'll �have a lot
less problems that I did.  I just want to keep these so-called �security
scanners from questionable "security firms" from portscanning my �system
constantly.
