Here's one text you can read that covers this topic: Firewalls and Internet Security, William R. Cheswick and Steven M. Bellovin, Addison Wesley, ISBN 0-201-6335754. I happened to run into Bellovin at last week's USENIX Security Conference, and thanked him for that text. He reminded me that the second edition is due out soon. -- This message falsely claims to have been scanned for viruses with F-Secure Anti-Virus for Microsoft Exchange and to have been found clean. _ Philippine Linux Users Group.
