The version of IIS that lives on workstation versions of Win2k/WinXP is a very sad rendition of what a webserver should be - but, luckily enough, most people serious change to Apache for Windows or something along the same lines - and something without as many holes/bugs/shortcomings as IIS. I continue to build a CD for my linux/networking tools for any distro I either load or test - tcpwrapper is part of that package - along with heaps of other little cool tools/toys. I'm currently building a listing of the problems/shortcomings for the MDK 9.1b in my SPARE time (as if I've got heaps currently) - I'm sure that that is something I'll end up discovering in my "full" installation - as I've already found I'm missing still yet some dev tools and the likes...ah well...all in the game... -- Sat, 15 Feb 2003 21:50:00 +1100 9:50pm up 4:40, 3 users, load average: 0.75, 0.24, 0.19 ------------------------------------------------------------------ | __ __ | kuhn media australia | | / ,, /| |'-. | http://kma.0catch.com | | .\__/ || | | |=================================| | _ / `._ \|_|_.-' | stephen kuhn | | | / \__.`=._) (_ | email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | |/ ._/ |"""""""""| | email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | |'. `\ | | | icq: 5483808 | | ;"""/ / | | | | | smk ) /_/| |.-------.| | mobile: 0410-728-389 | | ' `-`' " " | Berkeley, New South Wales, AU | ------------------------------------------------------------------ linux user:267497 * RH 8.0 * PC/Mac/Linux/Networking/Consulting ------------------------------------------------------------------ Kids, kids, kids.
