I have firewalled dns as a security measure. One hack is to point someone at a foreign dns server bad guys control. So I guess I am off to another provider if they do this. Disappointing.
Terrible design! One column and lots of fluff and very little content. It looks like a Wordpress site you spent 5 minutes making with the default theme. I expect better!
I used to work at a TV station. My two cents and the short version.
The business end of the company has different needs and goals than the engineering area. An example a marketing person should not be able to access the transmitter site. Put a firewall between Engineering and the rest of the company. That is your point of demarc. There is going to be data sharing between the areas, but that is the purpose of the firewall. Setup procedures and standards for company computing. Train or work with a designated engineer on company IT procedures. Let the IT engneer setup engineering procedures The engineers only need access to a subset of the company IT. Engineers PCs should log on to the domain or their trusted domain.. Everybody is happy.
I signed one. NEVER DO IT AGAIN. Previous poster is right US California law invalidates non compete clause. It does get sticky about derriative work.
Unless they are willing to pay you for the next 6 months your salary after you leave, then HELL NO!
Even after modifying the contract, command a very high price for your services. Unless they pay it, they are not worth working for.
Personal opinion, ones man's experience.
T-3 at work. Shared among 3 sites. No special queue or anything else. 37Mb/s for 28 minutes. Router is FreeBSD 4.11, PIII 450 with 2 3COM 3C905B's Around 1100 lines in ipf rule set. Not very well optimized, I have 1 group. I have NAT enabled, but this is not using NAT.
I don't mean to single you out, but I have to rant...
I had a vendor that wanted me to open up a Mac to any IP address so he could support it anywhere he was at. I asked him if was prepared for handling the 44Mb/s traffic while people were probing the box. His response was he had it at another location and nothing has happened. NOT an a defense.
We have defended against the "million password attack", 1Gb/s denial of service, and various others. Do I think I am secure NO.
I have worked in a group that reported, and analyzed a day one virus effecting windows computers. It came from inside our network internal firewall helps, but does not stop this.
I have 2 DSL lines that are not tied to any phone numbers. I still have my analog line, but I am researching VoIP, but not ready to jump yet. What happens to me? I wonder if they can take it away? or am I grandfathered in.

Can we use a distributed cluster of XBoxes to crack it?
Keep hounding them, at least it worked for me with another ISP.
I was receiving SPAM, blocked them, then finally found the ISP subnet and blocked it. Finally got tired of 12 thousand plus connections a DAY to my port 25 on my HOME DSL line with 2 users on the box. I sent a threatening a letter complaining of denial of service attack on my line, and threatened legal action, oh and CC my ISP. About a week later the connections have stopped.
It is not, just trolls mostly I think.
I know I am getting old and set in my ways, so learning linux has been a long path for me.
I have hardly ever encountered a bad word in groups. Many don't know of BSD, a few are eager to find another that "speaks their language", some are jokingly bad comments.
Gotta admit the stuffed penguins I have seen are much better than any of the daemons stuffed animals I have seen.
Enjoy what works for you,
I am a BSD user since 386BSD days, and a frustrated linux admin.
There is enough room in the world for both, and hopefully many more. Vote with what you run, be proud, but don't knock the other guy.
I get what I want out of my FreeBSD installations, I hope there are many Linux and any other flavor OS users out there just as happy with their installations.
Life is to short, enjoy it the best way you can with what you like!
A rack of Cisco 2940's with lights in Utilization mode!

My girlfriend now girlfriend does XP/Mac, teaches MS Office, and Adobe Acrobat. Proctors classes at local JC on all of the above and Internet in general.
I had an chance a while back to run around the Vehicle Assembly building for the Saturn V 2nd stage. Photos, or anything else can't replace the live experience.

Ok, that is just a dumb thing. Not a status symbol.

I am in the process of getting Speakeasy.net DSL through Covad/Verizon and its is 6Mbps/768Kbps. Speakeasy also allows servers. All for $106/month.

Good luck, maybe some of it will help.

I vote for saving it.
