Disambig

There is a separate article Demilitarized zone (computing) dedicated to demilitarized zones in computer security, and there is a link to that article here. The section comcerning those should be merged with that article. The interwiki links to de: and nl: should then be removed as the corresponding articles treat exclusively of DMZ-s in computer security. Andres 05:10, 1 Sep 2004 (UTC)

Done. Pasting text that should be merged with Demilitarized zone (computing) here:

In computer network terms, a DMZ is a network or part of a network, separated from other systems by a firewall which allows only certain types of network traffic to enter or leave. In a typical example, a company will protect its internal networks from the internet with a firewall, but will have a separate DMZ to which the public can gain limited access. Public web servers might be placed in such a DMZ. pamri 04:52, Feb 17, 2005 (UTC)

The disambig link seemed a bit wordy to me — I haven't seen any others that give such a full definition of the term they link to. I shortened it, as anyone who needs to know more about the computing term can always follow the link itself. Lusanaherandraton 08:43, 12 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Norway and Sweden

A DMZ also excisted on the border between Norway an Sweden from 1905 to i think the 1990's, but then it hadn't been enforced for quite a while. Inge 15:05, 10 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Canada and US?

does the Canada - US border warrent inclusion? I think I remember something about it being the longest non-militerised border in the world. And possible this was a condition of 1812-1814 or one of the later border disputes? Murray.booth 08:20, 28 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I've seen it mostly cited as "undefended" border, which is different from demilitarised. --Kvasir 08:29, 28 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
