Firewall Wizards: RE: commercial va

["Behm, Jeffrey L." <BehmJL () bvsg com>]

Do you have any specifics on what got "freaked out?" by
nessus? I.E. what in particular should one be concerned
about? I would have to guess you are talking about running
it in the mode *without* the "safe-checks" box checked.
(I.E. only the banners are checked, and the actual exploit
is not actually attempted.)

Please enlighten me if I am astray.
