Thanks Much Jeff! For the CA-ers that might be lurking out there, we have no plans now or in the future to use either ACF2 nor Top Secret. We will only use VM:Secure on our VM system. We would expect that since most shops will be using VM as a hypervisor for Linux guests, CA would realize this and enhance their VM Security product accordingly.

They didn't mention VM:Secure, so I asked about it. Here is their response.

However, they are aware of your request and thank you for raising the issue. Nancy -----Original Message----- From: Davis, Jeff [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, February 13, 2002 12:06 PM To: Newfield, Nancy Subject: linux and vmsecure Nancy, I didn't get a chance to ask a question this morning in the webcast on linux. My question regards VM:Secure. I saw you mentioned an interface from linux to ACF2. Do you have plans for an interface to VM:Secure rules and passwords? This is an obvious need for running linux under VM. Thanks, F.
