Athena's Free Firewall Browser 23

athenasec writes "Firewall Browser is a free configuration analyzer (download here), released by Athena Security, which works on Cisco, Check Point, and Netscreen firewalls for searching rulebases based on address or service ranges — the way change requests are actually made. The tool is available as a free download with no limitations, user license restrictions, or registration hurdles. Users can slice and dice any firewall-related question about the network, service objects, and security rules for a multi-vendor environment from a single flexible interface. There is also this how-to guide for applying the tool to day-to-day operational tasks."

I had a dedicated pc then got a chipped xbox (still have it), but now I have a mac mini (last revision), connected to my projector (1080i), i have installed plex which is a fork of xbmc for OSX. and it connects via nfs to my main file server.

All i use is the mac remote it turn the mac on from sleep mode and lets me control plex. Only thing missing from plex is a tv tuner - but I have another app on the mac to do that - but it means using another remote.....
