I've always thought flexibility is a bad thing to have in a firewall, the
more ways you can do stuff the easier it is to leave yourself open or the
easier it is to get hacked if someone finds a limited access method.
One of the reasons I like pix is because they are such a nightmare to work
with. Makes for a real undesirable hacking experience.
