corporate environments are totally different then home environments so I don't know why people keep linking the 2 together
The only way they have been linked together here is through best practice- look it up.
And I'm sorry Leather, but your qualifications mean jack, squat, and nada if you don't follow best practices. You claim certifications from the very same organizations you ignore for their best practices.
Before anyone else claims to be THE system admin for the Pope or NSA or some such nonsense, and then claims to not only NOT run A/M AND disable built-in security- just be aware that everyone's BS meter went off the charts. There is no credibiliy.
And for those saying "I'm not recommending it, I'm just saying I do it"... There are plenty of things you do that I don't want to hear about. If you aren't adding to the discussion, why are you posting? Trolling?
Let's assume you actually can manage your way out of a loopback address- why would you advocate (in an open forum) poor security practices that you yourself 'would not recommend to anyone'??? What kind of admin experience do you actually have, thinking it is OK to spout off bad advice to people who may not know the pitfalls???
If you know the pitfalls, it's on your head. I've got that one. But why would you not give full and complete info to others who might not know?
