Re: Can you turn off text messaging from blackberry BES?

[mferree]

I believe you can contact your carrier to block all text messages.

That will only disable their ability to send.  Will not allow you to block 
incoming txt message.

Can you manually turn off text messaging from a BES server?

RE: Firewall Recommendation

[Phil Thompson]

The biggest complaint with all the firewalls is the India support. It is the 
lack of respect the industries has for their customers.

For the sake of disclosure, I am a Watchguard Reseller.  I will say that 
neither I or my customers have never had a problem with a Watchguard that I 
couldn't resolve, but then I have direct access to the Watchguard Level 2 
support, and from there to the engineers and developers themselves.  They are 
not without their issues, but then I could say the same about Checkpoint, and I 
used be Certified on that product back in the day as well.



I've worked with Watchguard, Checkpoint, and ISA.  I can honestly say that they 
all have their quirks.  I've never worked with a firewall that always worked 
exactly the way I wanted it to right out of the box, and I would have to say 
that would be because my brain doesn't work the same way the team that 
developed the firewall does.  Once I've understood how they think, I understand 
how to make their products do what I want them to do.



I personally like Watchguard.  I've gotten very personal support, and the only 
thing I can really complain about is that whoever is writing their 
documentation needs to go back to school.  It seems every time there is a new 
update, the documentation that gets released with it is missing at least one 
step.  I get around it because I do it so often I can tell what they forgot.



I would suggest that you consider Watchguard.  If you don't want to work with a 
local reseller, there are support packages available from Watchguard that will 
give you directly the same level of support I use.  It will pay for itself the 
first time you use it.

Hello, we have a Checkpoint firewall that is coming up for maintenance renewal 
and the price is going up and up and finding qualified consultants to assist 
with upgrades is getting harder and harder.
I'm very satisfied with the firewall itself, but feel it's time to review what 
other people are using.
Our needs are simple, we have one office with 160 users now but expect to open 
other offices in the future.  We have a dozen or so remote users who VPN in.  
We have a half dozen machines in the DMZ for various uses and use RSA for 
authentication.
What firewall systems are you using and which would you buy if you had the 
opportunity to start fresh?

Thanks
Jim Walters
