<p>I am currently a member of the design team for the next-generation
operating system from the NonStop Enterprise Division of HP. </p>
<p>I became interested in Internet Security
when I established a home office in 1999 and had DSL service installed in our
home. I investigated
ipchains and developed the scripts which are now collectively known as <a href="http://seawall.sourceforge.net"> Seattle
Firewall</a>. Expanding on what I learned from Seattle Firewall, I then
designed and wrote Shorewall. </p>
<p>I telework from our home in&nbsp;<a href="http://www.cityofshoreline.com">Shoreline,
Washington</a>
where I live with my wife Tarry. </p>
<p>Our current home network consists of: </p>
