First off I have to say your firewall product is a very nice package I tried it out the other night on a new machine [Dell Poweredge 850 Intel dual-core 3.0ghz machine].
Comment:) The serial console hang is still there in the 2.0 code. I had a real monitor/kbd/mouse attached and unless I hit a key on the keyboard before the grub timeout it would fail to boot. The obvious quick workaround was to comment out the terminal and serial lines in grub.conf. Later on I went back changed it to the more traditional setup like so serial --unit=0 --speed=9600 --word=8 --parity=no --stop=1 terminal --timeout=10 console serial and then adding "console=tty0 console=ttyS0" to the end of the kernel line. No problems after that. [I used 9600 only because the Dell console could not to 34600 so I went down to the old standby.] Question:) I've seen some questions posted about SMP support, there seems to be no hard answer about when this is coming. All I saw was there are some stability issues which seems odd. I'm just downloading the source packages to take a look at it. My question is this, is the endian kernel a vanilla kernel from some one else's sources? It looks like it might be from RHEL at least the version is very close to what is in 4.3. It would be very slick to use a vanilla kernel so security updates would be a simple matter of rpm -ivh http://foo Just now I tried installing the lastest SMP kernel from the Centos and it failed of course [I forced it with a --nodeps, after the initscripts package was flagged as problem.] It was a good try and let me know that it was not going to work. It booted as far as trying to load the scsi modules then died.... Feature Request: You need raidtools installed so we can do RAID1 mirroring at least. I might try to install this but I suspect it will fail also. That's it, thanks for the hard work if nothing else I appreciate monster amount configuration you put into these packages to play nice. -Mike Tremaine ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
