You have two default gateways. While not necessarily a bad thing since
a Linux box can be multi-homed, you need to do a little more work. For
these sorts of configurations you may wish to consult the advanced

found it will read today... Thx!
I also do not usually use IPCop in these more complex situations though
I am sure it is capable.
I've been using it for ~8 years, know/understand it, love it, but it's
getting older...
1) Vanilla Linux install, usually Voyage (Debian) or Ubuntu server,
pretty much doing all the things found in the lartc guide.
Not enough FW knowledge to do this
2) Microtik RouterOS
Never heard off will check it out on google
3) Vyatta & 4) pfsense/monowall
Tried it but it's not as 'easy' as IPcop. (me lazy)
I do not really see the point in having a green *and* an orange network
on the same VM server.
I've been debating that one a couple of times.
On the inside will be an NFS/SAMBA/CUPS/fax server, a vm running
winBlows XP for the odd program that requires it.
On the outside servers for qmail, apache + a VM talking to limewire (for
the kids) and a VM with a 'gotoMyPC' solution (echogent server -
http://www.echogent.com/products.htm)
My reasoning was that if one of the orange ones get hacked, they can
'attack/see' the other orange VMs fairly easy, but cannot get to my
'private' green VM as fast ...
It is all more an exercise and proof of concept than anything else.
The box a Dell 1950, has 2x xeon processors (8 cores total), 5GB ram,
and a jbod of 1.2 TB in a raid 6
Something I picked up from a bankrupt company... found it a waste to
have it just sit there ...
Thanks
Peter
