I didn't know that was there... what version does it start? I get lots of probes... can I run this detector on port-22 (on the outside) as well? With the 3800s having dried up, I'm now really concerned... what if my device blows up? and I've got nothing to experiment with. I was planning to buy more in the new year (now), but I didn't do it fast enough. Given that they have dried up now, I'm thinking that I need to go back and replace my 3800 with something else that can run cerowrt, or at least can run the QOS scripts. I am not happy running my firewall as a VM, but I certainly could do that... -- ] Never tell me the odds! | ipv6 mesh networks [ ] Michael Richardson, Sandelman Software Works | network architect [ ] mcr@sandelman.ca http://www.sandelman.ca/ | ruby on rails [
