Yeah, I remember dealing with them. I asked them for a command-line virus scanner that runs on FreeBSD. The rep said, "Sure. We have one for twenty-nine ninety-five." It wasn't until the church Accountant put through the credit card and it came up "Insufficient Funds" that we found out that "twenty-nine ninety-five" means "two thousand, nine hundred, ninety five dollars" rather than "twenty-nine dollars and ninety-five cents."
Evolution, at least as Darwin defined it (and I guess he's as authoritative as anybody) is the "gradual change in the species by the process of natural selection and survival of the fittest." The fossil records, if you care to believe them, do not show gradual change. There is the same exact species for millions (again, if you believe the dating methods) of years, and them WHAM! In a mere tick of the clock, geologically speaking, there is a whole new species. Or two. Or a dozen. Seems to me that somebody's shuffling the deck. And that somebody must be a whole lot smarter than we are; since we can't even make durable copies of what's been already made (sheep, for instance). Might as well call that somebody God; whoever it was is near enough so as to make no difference. Occam was right.

I will NEVER buy from Network Associates again.
I'd like to run two dns servers on the same machine, one for queries coming from the internet and the other for queries coming from the lan.
Yeah, I know. The "right" way to do it is to run the internal dns somewhere besides on the firewall, but I've got a scarcity of Unix boxen (read ONE).
Wondered if it was possible to configure BIND to bind to a specific address or port? Perhaps with tcpserver?
