Apologies for the anon posting, but I'm not entirely confident
of my present firewall strategy (but that's fodder for another
thread...). Hence my paranoia.
I had tried to follow up on Ray Kaplan's posting for ordering
the hot new book by Bill Cheswick and Steve Bellovin: Firewalls
and Internet Security - Repelling the Wily Hacker. ISBN 0-201-63357-4.
Unfortunately, the two "800" numbers he gives don't work in Canada
(at least not in the Toronto area). Response from bexpress @
aw .
com
was sluggish, but at least they gave me an 800 fax number. They
haven't responded to my subsequent request for a voice number
that I can actually get through to....
At any rate, I jotted a few lines down and faxed them to the new
fax number. Much to my delight, I received a phone call from a
Rhonda Sharp of Addison-Wesley who was more than helpful. Naturally
I placed my order right away.
I realize that Ray's message said that the book sold for $26.95,
I presume in US dollars. Interestingly, the book sells up here for
the same price, in Canadian funds. This price includes shipping. :-)
The fax number for my fellow Canucks is 800-465-0536. You can
also reach Rhonda at either rhondas @
aw .
com or 416-442-3219.
Hope someone else finds this helpful.
