<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 <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>
<ul>
<li>1.2Gz Athlon, Windows XP Pro, 320MB RAM, 40GB &amp; 8GB IDE HDs
and LNE100TX (Tulip) NIC - My personal Windows system.</li>
<li>Celeron 1.4Gz, RH7.3, 384MB RAM, 60GB HD, LNE100TX(Tulip) NIC -
My personal Linux System which runs Samba configured as a WINS server.
This system also has <a href="http://www.vmware.com/">VMware</a> installed
and can run both <a href="http://www.debian.org">Debian</a> and
<a href="http://www.suse.com">SuSE</a> in virtual machines.</li>
<li>K6-2/350, RH7.3, 384MB RAM, 8GB IDE HD, EEPRO100 NIC  - Mail (Postfix
&amp; Courier-IMAP), HTTP (Apache), FTP (Pure_ftpd), DNS server (Bind).</li>
<li>PII/233, RH7.3 with 2.4.20-pre6 kernel, 256MB MB RAM, 2GB SCSI HD
- 3 LNE100TX  (Tulip) and 1 TLAN NICs  - Firewall running Shorewall
