Search Again: Firewall hardware/software From: Chris Parker Date: Friday, March 3, 2000 Time: 11:12:00 pm I know this is off topic for this list, but I figured this would be a good place to start. I'm looking to protect a single Mac DNS/Mail Server and an NT web server. Does anyone know of any [relatively] inexpensive firewall hardware/software that can protect against common attacks? I've seen "firewall" software for as low as $39 to firewall hardware in excess of $10k. I purchased a product, that I won't name, that did NAT (Network Address Translation) as it's firewall. Which really doesn't work [when you're running DNS, Mail, and Webservers] as far as I can tell. I'm willing to spend money on a reasonable product, but I don't want to spend so little that I get junk or so much that I'm wasting money. Any suggestions on products or where to go to get additional information?
