I said I'd drop it, but apparently there are people that don't
understand the dinosaur mentality of certain organizations such as
DOD, DISA/DECC, OSD, DARPA, USA, USN, USAF, and USMC.
If it's not in the base setup, on a production box, you can't use it.

the closest would be the guy who mentioned that since ports are on the
CD's that they should be acceptable, this is
DOD/DFAS, as well as DOD/DISA.
I find it amazing that the CIA has a more lax policy than DFAS and DISA.
