While in general I would agree with you - that the NETBIOS name is useless. The way to fix this, is of course, to run the firewall and/or management console on LINUX or SUN rather than on WinNT. :-)
Dan -----Original Message----- From: Jim Rosenberg [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] In my opinion, trying to resolve the Netbios name is a complete botch, on several counts: 1. It is generally speaking *USELESS* information. (I suppose it could be quite useful to crackers, but what good does it do *ME* in defending my system against flying infectious space junk to know that someone scanning me has named their computer PLUTO or hasn't changed it from OEMCOMPUTER?) _______________________________________________ Firewalls mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.gnac.net/mailman/listinfo/firewalls
