Given the brokenness of NT's networking stack, I would certainly reject any solution which involved embedding NT in a piece of networking hardware. Owen
Hi all,
James Glave at Wired News again. This time around I am seeking opinions on behalf of a friend up at Wired (the print magazine) -- concerning embedded NT. I couldn't find any discussion in the nanog archive, so I'm wondering if anoyne here has any experience with, or knowledge of, embedding NT in networking hardware - if that even makes any sense....?
From: Jesse Freund <freund@wired.com> i'm working on a piece about nt-embedded and i have a couple of questions. i'm hoping you might be able to hook me up with a smart network operator or someone else in the know or perhaps you know. basically, i'm curious why the hell someone would want a version of nt embedded in a switch or router? and who provides the custom solutions nt-embedded is meant to replace?
Thanks, all!
