Hi,

I am a Security Engineer (firewalls,IDS,etc - not torch and guard dog). I 
specialise in Check Point Firewall-1 which runs best on Unix/Linux. I am also 
a Linux enthusiast. Basically Security is my job and I'm damn good at it but 
Linux is my passion. Perl is just fun to use.

I don't get much chance to use perl which is unfortunate because it is the 
only programming language I have ever _really_ understood. I try to use it in 
the most obscure places though.

My biggest project was a small IRC server/client. 

I really enjoy playing with regular expressions. They are slippery as soap.

I'm married, two kids. Both will use Linux. ("As long as you live under my 
roof, you will use my operating system!" "But da-ad...") 

I work in Randburg ... across the road from Multichoice.  ;)
