Simple : each time i watch to the logs of the production servers, i can
see that stupid and negative peoples are trying to hack them, day after
day and without success but they are trying... -> It seems me a good
idea to do them confused in using firewalls, poxying apps and soo on
but, not only...

In beetwin : most of the attacks are inited from win32 boxes and
dedicated to hack win32 files-systems...

 That one got me.
