As we have all seen in the last few weeks, there have been several
people who have been ragging on Windows NT TCP/IP stack. I would like to hear
some comments on real problems that have been detected. I have looked around
the net, although no hard-fact information could I find. NT appears to have
some good qualities, ease-of-use, although I am unsure about several things.
The integrity of the OS. Nobody can test it well. Who's to say what holes are
under the hood that nobody has a good chance to look at.
The TCP/IP stack has been said to have problems.
They are not a security company, therefore I am very unwilling to assume they
have done the proper testing for security purposes. For that matter, I am
unwilling to assume the product isn't full of "Microsoft Features" that are
undocumented..
I would be very interested in hearing about these issues.
