First - This has been a great forum, my thanks all.
Now I have been a NIS and NWS user since 2003, my question is "is it best to let the automatic control take care of the firewall rules"
I am of moderate computing knowing and sometimes get "concerned" over rules that NIS configures automatically. Some examples are the spooler "spoolers" also windows explorer (not IE). I have been finding bits and pieces on the forum and seem to have come to the conclusion that a moderate surfer should leave the rules up to NIS. What are some thoughts?
Scans are clean, I would prefer not going with the alerts related to turning off auto control.
