Looks like you may be in luck Mike. Take a look at the February issue of
INTERNET. There "ZD Labs" (for Ziff-Davis, who is the publisher) looked at
Boarderware, CyberGuard, Eagle, FW-1, Gauntlet, Labyrinth and Secure
Network Gateway.
They also took a brief peek at NSC's Boarderguard and Blackhole but were
unable to do a full-up eval apparently because the products were not
available at the time the tests were conducted.
For various reasons, the ZD Lab folks settled on Gauntlet (TIS), CyberGuard
(used to be DoD contractor Harris Corp.) and Eagle (Raptor Systems), as the
top three. Raptor's Eagle was picked as the overall best, with an
honorable mention to both CyberGuard and Firewall-1.
