Your missing the point completely. It has nothing to do with AV telling you where you are vulnerable. It has everything to do with these solutions being marked to IT people as actually having the capability to prevent attacks against your systems. Most people these days are not simply buying the l

FYI: The TZ 170 was EOS'ed a year or 2 a go and was replaced by the TZ 180. The TZ 190 is a sweet box and is only available with the Enhanced OS. Getting a cheaper TZ 180 and putting the Enhanced OS and unlimited user upgrades on it is more expensive than getting a TZ 190. Derek Lidbom wrote: >

To answer your question about model, SonicWALL TZ170 or 190 should do the trick. If you want any sort of granularity with your rules, the Enhanced OS is a must. Sorry to be less than helpful with my last response. Just hoping someone on this list knows someone at SonicWALL so I can get a dial

IIRC, sometimes the OCS client will not install by push if the Blackberry Messenger is in place. We have had a similar issue, sometimes the client installs, sometimes it does not. I have not spent a great deal of time on it. We normally do not send a BB out without the OCS client installed.
