I had a problem like that in 2005.  Fancy, high-falutin' Beltway Bandits 
(from Wash DC) came to scan our servers.  I got called in (taken from my 
normal busy routine) to address their concerns . . .

Bandit: "Yes, we see you have over 1200 Apache servers in the environment."

All eyes look at me.

Me: "We don't run Apache here."

You could hear a pin drop, which in a carpeted room, means it got real 
quiet.  The three bandits huddle together questioning their data.

Bandit: "Could you explain?"

Me: "We use IBM HTTP Server."

More bandit discussions.  "OK, thank you.  We'll let you know if there 
is anything else."

===================

Then there's the every two year audit question: "Please explain how LDAP 
enforces password change policy . . ."  What?  Do you think this is 
Active Directory?  Sigh . . .

Lolz.

George Toft
