Okay, now we're gettin' somewhere...that's what I'm talkin' about. You
had me at Pink Floyd.
I'll have to get an RFP and PO together PDQ.

Perhaps you'd be interested in the McNettWARE F23 "Machine that goes ping"
Edition.
It's $5K with no maintenance, no support, but when it blocks a port incursion,
it
makes a solid, satisfying "Ping" sound. For $1K more, the pings will have
pitches
directly related to the port number.
For $1000 more, attempted incursions on port 23 will play a couple seconds of
Pink
Floyd's "Sheep".

No no...sorry, I must insist that since I thought the price of $5k was WITHOUT
maintenance, and that 5 year support plan has to be additional. I'm afraid we
don't
have a deal.

You drive a hard bargain. Ok ok, $5000 gets you the unit plus 5 years
maintenance,
plus we'll put your logo on our website and give you access to our special
clients-only portal.

Oh man...I dunno...I couldn't pay less than $5,000 for that. Sorry.

But, yes, I've used many of the now-defunct Linux firewall packages, like Coyote
and
it's derivatives...loved 'em and found them to be rock solid. This client,
unfortunately, likes to give tours of his phone closet and drop comments like
"...and
we spent $5000 on this one little box...<smile>"
Oh, now you are talking about the McNettWARE F23 Enterprise Firewall Appliance,
which
conveniently starts at $3500 with $100/month monitoring and maintenance, and 99%
uptime SLA. No mention that it's Linux underneath.
