The readme for FPort 2.0
http://www.foundstone.com/knowledge/intrusion_detection.html
says fport supports Windows NT4, Windows 2000, and Windows XP.
While it is true FPort now works on XP, the latest release doesn't even include PSAPI.DLL and craps out on NT4. Even if we supply a copy of PSAPI.DLL in the same directory as FPORT.EXE, the app doesn't run on NT4. And it returns no error about wrong OS version... it just sits there.
Needless to say the app was updated and released after JD's departure. Seems he and his gang were the only ones able to reliably produce these Winapps for Foundstone.
I'm just glad JD got his big chunk of that $4,000,000 in R&D money during the develpment of Foundscan, and that he and the gang escaped in the nick of time.
The 80,000 person hours they put in must've been a real bitch though. ;-)
