It all depends whether you are a master craftsman who has studied building
practices or someone who doesn't know a left-handed claw hammer from a
right-handed one. Besides, the people from TIS don't have the keys to your
house, you do. Since you insist on "building your own", have you written
a firewall package or are you using another, one that perhaps someone else
has the keys to?
Taking my pick and my shovel and both my hammers :-)
