I am running the firewall on a 133mh machine withb 64mb of ram. Once its up
and running its ok. It is quite slow to operate. The SSH is very slow to do
anything and then doesn't. I downloaded a small ssh client which works fine
though.
I am using an anologue modem, and THIS DOES NOT WORK. To get it to work
reliably I have to ssh in to the server and type ifup ppp0. I don't think
this is correct. Also I consistently get slow connection speeds, under 3k a
sec which I believe is about 33kbps. Its an extrenal 56k modem on
ttyS0/ttyS1. Squid works great, except than when my browser is set to cache,
I cannot access the admin interface. Once I disable caching in the browser
it works fine.
Other than that, the look and feel is good. Incidentally mine does not time
out apart from the ssh, although I don't think that's a timeout. Everything
else is accessible and I believe works :)
