Poll: Name my firewall!-Don't vote yet.

[Chaotic42]

I'm trying to think of a name for my firewall. I'll take some recommendations, and make a poll.

It can't be anything overly stupid like "I=r0X0rz", and I'd like to stay away from male reproduction, so dingleberries, whoever he may have been in a previous life, needs not apply.

It's a dual Celeron 333 running FreeBSD 5.

Don't vote yet!

Crap, it didn't form the question for some reason. Oh well, throw them out anyway.

Ooooh, I like it.

That goes on the list! Cerberus is cool, but really over used. I'm thinking about calling my personal system wehrmahct.

Call one side your LAN: Israel
Call the Internet: Palestine
Call your firewall: Gaza Strip

 

[Dingleberries]

Name it the "Over the shoulder boulder holder"

 

[MercenaryForHire]

Trojan or Durex.

Whoa! Maybe there is a middleeast.cx or similar domain available.

Yeah, the astronomical references are great, but let's have some unity.

The four I'd list are Io, Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto. (too lazy to verify spelling)

Personally, I'd stick with the plutonian theme. (Charon is Pluto's moon, IIRC.) I'd call it...


Plutarch.

Ok, I didn't think of Pluto's moon, didn't have a clue about that, astronomy isn't my thing really

Charon is the ferryman by the river Styx in Greece mythology, which is why I figured it might make a nice name for a firewall.
And as Chaotic mentioned, my firewall is named Cerberus, yeah it's a bit cliche, but I like that particular name, so it stuck anyway

When are we gonna be able to vote?

 

[notfred]

Napalm. It makes a wall of fire, right?

When I get 7 or 8 names that I like.

Napalm is a good name, but I'm looking for something quirky.

I'm not really feeling the Freecell stuff though. Sorry
