INTERNET FIREWALLS AND NETWORK SECURITY, SECOND EDITION
ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
From Chris Hare
I would like to acknowledge the assistance of several people who have contrib-
uted to this second edition. To Mike Martineau of iSTAR Internet for providing
an ISDN connection and some computing equipment for the Internet connec-
tion; to David Cross and Frank Rosano of Milkyway Networks for providing
the Black Hole software and hardware. A special thank you to Steve Bourgeois
of Milkyway Networks who answered what seemed like an endless barrage of
questions and provided general all-around moral and technical support.
And to my wife Terri for her love and patience while I worked through many
nights—she only had to endure the grumpy mornings.
From Karanjit Siyan
One of the more pleasurable tasks of being an author is to thank the people
responsible for the success of a book. My heartfelt thanks to my wife Dei for her
love and support. I wish to thank my father Ahal Sing and my mother Tejinder,
my brothers Harjee and Jagjit, and my sisters Kookie and Dolly. Thanks also to
Margaret Cooper Scott, Cathryn and Bob Foley, Craig and Lydia Cooper, Rob-
ert and Janie Cooper, Heidi and Steve Bynum, Barbara and Edward L. Scott
(Scotty), and Jacquelyn McGregor for their love and support. Special thanks to
Mother, Saint Germain, El Morya, Babaji, and Bhagwan Krishna. Without their
spiritual support, this book would not have been possible.
Others who deserve credit are Bob Sanregret and Anders Amundson, who ini-
tially got me interested in writing teaching materials on computer networks. I
also wish to thank the many people at Learning Tree for their help and support
and permission to use some viewgraphs from the courses I have authored for
them. In particular I would like to thank John Moriarty, Rick Adamson, Dr.
David Collins, and Eric Garen. I wish to thank John Rutkai for his advice in
selecting server components that I needed for writing this book.
I wish to acknowledge the many people who have helped me along the way:
Harpreet Sandhu, Bill Duby, Angela, Michael Anaast, and Janice Culliford; my
students Lisa, Debi, Sheri, Rondi, and Linda; Edward and Mary Kramer, Daniel
Gottsegen, David Stanfield, Dr. Wagner, Bill Joy, Professor Ramamoorthy, Pro-
fessor G. S. Sanyal, Professor “M,” Professor Kumar Subramaniam, Professor
Mahabalipuram, Marti Lichtanski, Rex Cardinale, Dave Ford, mathematician
D. R. Kaprekar, Mr. Gadre, Mr. Misra, and Mr. Hoffmann.
