Thanks for the Feedback Paul. The binary only tool doesn't connect to a firewall at all. It requires no connection and can be ran 100% within a sandbox. It simply takes data from your firewall. I find that binaries tend to be more user friendly rather than saying install python, wx.python..etc. But I do agree with you. This was a sneak peak that I wanted feedback on. I had always planned to make this open source much like my other project tpcat (a packet capture analyzer http://sourceforge.net/projects/tpcat/) Anyhoo. Updated binary and source available here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/ciscoconnection/ It will run on all modern systems all you need to do is install python and wx.python. I've tested it on Windows/OSX/Linux. Thanks again all. -Tim Eberhard On Mon, Dec 14, 2009 at 8:22 AM, Paul D.
