Firstly, where's the improvement in just rebuilding implied rules without removing 
some services?

The other point is a matter of trust I think. Checkpoint had to build 3 service packs 
and a few hotfixes in order to fix RDP security problems. Are really all problems 
fixed? Couldn't there still be a problem?
I know it's like saying oh bind-4.1 had quite some security issues so I never will use 
any bind version anymore even latest versions fixed the problem.

Does anybody know whether RDP is necessary in NG-FP1?
