	It's funny - H-P used to offer a "secured Linux" product for like
$2,000.00 - but I just searched the site for it and cannot find a hint of it
anywhere.  I had thought it was part of their carrier grade product line -
but it appears that it's just RH AS now.  I was wondering if the secured
Linux was also an extension of Bastille, but my guess is that they were so
impressed with it that they killed the Linux port and moved it over to HPUX.
Nice.
