pfsense with FreeBSD is a very powerfull combination, period. However, it is compared with a 64-character password from a generator. Darn-difficult to use, and often written on a post-it and a plague for the help-desk (and thus a security risc in itself). If you are familiar with BSD, good, fine. If not you probably are not aware that you're exposing yourself somewhere (if you got it working anyway). _______________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- AstriCon 2009 - October 13 - 15 Phoenix, Arizona Register Now: http://www.astricon.net asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
