You'll find some early firewall papers authored or co-authored by me, and a
magazine article I wrote that gives a brief history of firewall development
on my web site at http://www.avolio.com/papers.html. Also the last time
this question came up I stuck a brief history out there at
http://www.avolio.com/fw-history/.
I don't understand your parenthetical comment. Why would you think you'd
not be able to find out what the purpose was?
