this stuff is at the lim of my knowledge. plato.thought.org
is my firewall. pfSense. i don't have a nuculear(!) secrets
or whatever, but damned if i want these script-kiddies reading
my poetry..... or to have somebody hijack anything and spew
out sp*m----which i severely despise.
having my domain: server and firewall set up correctly will at
least (help) keep the bad guys, the crackers of the world, from
using my bandwidth or crack in. thus: now that i'm finished
with my master's in ethics, i have time to get up to speed on
this stuff. pfSense, DNS & BIND, anf whatever else i let
slip since 06/2002.
