I really do not remember the exact rule and reason, too much time has passed since I tackled that argument with them. I do remember finding plenty of evidence that actually supported their stance, which typically is not the case. So whatever the issue is/was would be a valid issue in regards to whatever their security rules are over there. I know it has something to do with how NETAPPs work and connect to that network but beyond that the details are extremely hazy in my head. At this point it does not matter anyway, corporate has long since decided that CF is not the avenue to continue down after having it as a standard for 8 or so years.
