Personally I've been using Endian Community for some time. I like the fact that it can run headless and is very user friendly. You should have a Gig of ram if you're going to be scanning email as it arrives.

Most likely its just hardware I'm interested in because I would look to install OpenBSD and configure it accordingly. Three hardware ideas have been suggested so far: 1) soekris box: http://soekris.com/ 2) alix box from PC Engines: http://www.pcengines.ch/ 3) netbook! Apparently there are USB:eth dongles with linux and OpenBSD support. I don't know if this is a good idea or not. What I like about this solution is its local and on the shelf. I also like the built in KB and display which sometimes might come in handy. Of course a fw can be easily managed via SSH. Other ideas? If some people are interested and we sort out something we all like we can order a few and work together. _______________________________________________ clug-talk mailing list [email protected] http://clug.ca/mailman/listinfo/clug-talk_clug.ca Mailing List Guidelines (http://clug.ca/ml_guidelines.php) **Please remove these lines when replying _______________________________________________ clug-talk mailing list [email protected] http://clug.ca/mailman/listinfo/clug-talk_clug.ca Mailing List Guidelines (http://clug.ca/ml_guidelines.php) **Please remove these lines when replying
