Hello Bill,
I do, but as a firewall product??? No, to me it is a security system similar
to RACF for the IBM MVS computers (System 360/370/390), it runs on releases
370, XA and ESA. But it controls local access within the computer for
different adress spaces to files etc. It is an ACL system, not a firewall
product. But - of course, it could have been extended making it possible to
use a MVS system as a firewall, rather it should intecept with the NJE
subsystem?? But this is not regular TCP/IP.
There is a special TCPIP system adress space in the MVS which possibly could
intercept with a Top Secret system??? I dunno, there are many years since I
was concerned with MVS systems.
Regards,
Axel

Ang�ende: Firewall Product "TopSecret"?
Ever heard of a firewall product called "TopSecret?" I dunno
anything
more than a name and that it's supposed to be a firewall.
Thanks for the help. I looked throughout the DejaNews and various
common
search engines... so I figured I'd come here and ask.
Bill
