What's to prevent and save me from an RSCAN/NetSecurity attack?  Since of course
SATAN is not an attack tool but an administrator's tool.  I suggest that 
everyone go out and pick up a security profiler, anything is better than nothing
at all, then use it and plug the holes that are found.  Problem is the people 
who need to hear this don't follow any security list anywhere, and don't want 
those damn security weanie's getting in their way.
