There goes YOUR attitude again.  I *SPECIFICALLY* stated in my initial
e-mail "or those of you that either have an older revision of my
firewall document, or are otherwise keeping track of it, there is a new
version available.".

How about you climb down off of your high horse and actually READ the
e-mail instead of jumping all over me.  I realize that a rational
conversation is beyond some people's capabilities, as it appears to be
beyond yours, but if you don't have anything USEFUL to contribute, why
contribute at all?
