Who is the partner/distributor? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Nancy Sollars" To: Sent: Saturday, March 09, 2002 5:12 PM Subject: Re: Router-Gateway-Firewall solution for less than 150?? mmm if its anything like the software we ( LinuxIT ) were pushing for them back in the UK i still have my doubts .. I had alot of time to run various install types of the E-Smith software .. its kinda the same as Netmax products i found it easy to gain root through the running of daemons. I guess being business partners / Distributors for these co's gives one a very good head start.
