Progress on C2 evaluation

Microsoft seems to be making progress with getting NT 4.0 C2 evaluated.
An Initial Product Assessment Report has been finished for NT 4.0 with
Service Pack 4. Microsoft is projecting that the final evaluation will
be completed by December 1998. Contrary to the C2 evaluation of NT 3.5,
this one is for both Server and Workstation, in a networked
configuration, and with more realistic peripherals. A product bulletin
of the Initial Report is available at
http://www.radium.ncsc.mil/tpep/epl/bulletin/entries/NCSC-PB-98-003.html.

Controversy over current C2 evaluation for NT 3.5

A former contractor to Microsoft has publicly claimed that Microsoft has
covered up holes in NT 3.5 in order to obtain C2 evaluation of the
product. Ed Curry was retained as a contractor to assist Microsoft in
obtaining the C2 evaluation. His contract was terminated several years
ago for unstated reasons. He was due to present his case before the
staff of the U.S. Secretary of Defense this month, but it is not yet
known what the outcome of that meeting was. Microsoft claims that he is
simply a disgruntled ex-contractor, and that there is no validity to his
story.

The C2 evaluation is of little practical significance but without it
Microsoft would be unable to sell significant quantities of the OS to
the U.S. Department of Defense.

NT - лучшая OS/2, чем OS/2!

Кстати, Open Group - обладатели марки UNIX - объявили Interix (подсистему
для NT) - UNIXом! (http://www.interix.com).

Enjoy!
