I didn't say it was- please *read* it again "in the product line" in this case doesn't say "of the product" it says "in the product line." > Given your insistence on "traditional" terminology, I find it hard to > believe that you're "accidentally" comparing a proxy to a hybrid firewall > and calling them the same thing. And I believe the word you were looking for It's in the same line, the product manager position is the same, the group is the same, the individual product manager isn't, the actual product isn't, but they are indeed in the same line. Checkpoint 1.0 is in the same product line as Checkpoint is now, even though one is a packet filter and one contains hybrid features (proxy-like "security servers.") > into your posts (1). ISA *is* a firewall. Never said it wasn't a firewall, get over it. Paul ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Paul D.
