when there is nothing left to add, but rather when there is nothing
left to take away.</span><br>

addressing -- an interesting early architectural error that shows how
much experimentation was going on while IP was being designed.</span><br>

<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 <a
href="http://lists.shorewall.net/SeattleInTheSpring.html">home</a>
in&nbsp;<a href="http://www.cityofshoreline.com" target="_top">Shoreline,
Washington</a>
where
I live with my wife Tarry.&nbsp; </p>
