re: Microsoft's firewall server technology.

as far as the firewall client is concerned, it is free for everybody. so this should not affect Novell and Netscape that much since they dont derive much revenue from firewall products.

"Redmond-based Microsoft is including more firewall-type features in the Proxy Server, but they will be fairly low-level, allowing third-party firewall developers to build products that run on top of Proxy Server and add value to it, sources added."
--from the article you posted.

sounds like a good deal for everybody. well, except Novell and Netscape.
