RE: [expert] Network Setup Help

[Franki]

ok, I may be able to help here...     1. Get webmin running, https and can do more then you think,, there is also a firewall module you can get at www.webmin.com (if its not already in the 8.1 version)   Webmin can even burn CD's and format partitions remotely. and it does servers like sendmail, apache, postfix, samba are all covered as well.   I recently came across an article on evolution... the screen shots I saw looked alot like outlook 2000, so much so, that I had to look twice to make sure it wasn't...   don't know about collaboration, but its worth checking out... I have heard of a few dropin replacements for exchange server and clients, but I can't think of any at the moment... sorry :-( I'll keep lookin though my directory of the ten thousand links and if I find them, I'll post them.       As far as network intursion detection, look into snort (snort.org) or prelude (mandrake suports prelude, but its alot newer then snort, which has been developing for quite a while and has a large user base..(they also ported it to win32)     rgds   Frank     -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Dylan Taylor Sent: Tuesday, 18 September 2001 3:08 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [expert] Network Setup Help I have just installed my 1st Linux box and oh my god is it sooooooo S-E-X-Y!!!!!!!  M$ has certainly taken a lot from this community.  I should know because up until recently, I was a tried and true M$ supporter. (I even hold a MCP + Internet certification)  Specifically, I want to use the following services from Beta 3 LM8.1:   Firewall/Router:  What is the best and most secure with a web interface for administration?  I will also use DHCP. Email:    Is there an ALL encompassing package that offers the same features of Exchange?  Despite the consensus, Exchange is an excellent collaboration email server and if actively maintained virus population is never an issue.  My plan is to configure a linux-based email server as a fall-back to the Exchange Server.    Proxy:  Is there anything better than Squid?   Is there a dedicated program for Intrusion detection and network monitoring of multiple OS’s?      TIA         Dylan Taylor Univessence Digital Studios www.univessence.com voice 310 397-6900
