Firewall on UNIX
I was given this assignment and part of it was to mention firewalls available on UNIX(ex. solaris) and Linux plaforms.
First I would like to ask what is the difference between Unix and Linux. And also can please tell me firewalls are available on these platforms?
Thank you before hand.
