Matthew,
No one is saying that. What Roland is saying, and the position that I
agree with, is that putting a firewall in front of a system _that is
intended to be ON the Internet, serving external users_, is a bad idea.
I think it's a given that you'd want to protect your internal systems
with a firewall (except for the aforementioned IPv6 illuminati, of whom
I am not one).
