Firewall = sysadmins job
Webcart said:Right, firewall management is sysadmin job, just like configuring mail server, webserver, DNS and such. I don't see much difference between all those
Webcart said:Once again, I don't think you have to provide any explanations re your reasons to support/not support specific feature.
I do, however, assume that if you choose to elaborate on the logic behind your decision, then discussion intended to offer different view or clarify yours shouldn't become personal and should be kept polite at all times.
This is all about what DA can or can't do, whatever I can do seems like offtopic here
I have my own as well now, Chris.ProWebUK said:Its already available as an 'add-on' there is a pre-configured version of KISS i have written for DA (you can install it with no additional modifications and it will run fine - I advise you to tighten it and modify it although it runs simply without any chnages)
