Every commercial OS today has a C2 option. The lack
of a C2 version of Linux has been a serious inhibitor
to adoption in the marketplace. I would guess you're
refering to the first NT evaluation, which supported
no networking and no removable media. Building a C2
(CAPP in Common Criteria jargon) Linux distribution
is easier than getting corporate marketing types to
see the value. Say, I bet I know what You do!
