The fgfs one, but I don't think that's a particularly onerous requirement to build fgcom. I can't imagine there's a large use case of people who really want to build fgcom standalone, but haven't already built fgfs from source. I do absolutely agree there are reasons to keep a separate /binary/, to run on a separate machines or similar, as an option (as we do for terrasync), but again for a large number of users the easiest solution would be an 'in process' one in terms of setup, configuration - and the easiest way to achieve that is to make the (tiny) amount of fgcom code live in the fgfs source tree. Anyway, it's only an idea, and not one I have time to work on in the short term :) James ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
