    If you prefer Linux over Solaris, you should inquire about Check Point's
    SecurePlatform OS. Based upon a hardened version of Linux, they quietly
    rolled this out around the time NG came out. I have worked with this and it
    is a breeze to get it up and running - less than 10 minutes. Performance is
    said to very good as well. Internal sources have hinted at the next release
    (SecurePlatform FP4) as being the Nokia IPSO 'killer'... Not sure what they
    have up their sleeves, but it will be a welcome addition to the current
    offerings in the marketplace. Good luck.

    Hi there,

    I'm managing FW-1 NG and i would like to throw MS win out of the window.

    The question is: does the management interface exist on Linux (e.g. RedHat)?

    Thanks,

    Maxx
