problem is...what does one use on a Mandrake 9.0 box if not shorewall
because I've had a terrible time in the past trying to get Bastille to
work on an MDK 9 box, which led me swiftly back to an 8.2 installation
for server use.
and I did take a look at gShield. The little bugger liked to drove me
nuts!

I grabbed an old P90 with 32MB - 540MB Drive and installed Smoothwall.
http://www.smoothwall.org
Now I run my entire network through it and just simply fergit it's
there except for frequent log checks.
I've heard about this one before but have never seen it. I'm downloading
the ISO now. Is this an actual installable OS/Firewall, or just firewall
software?
Total installable O/S.. I am using 2.0b2 Right now..
So am I......perfect!
I even removed the fans on the box so's the only you thing you can hear
is the occasional HD clicking.
Good luck,
HarM
I'm getting jazzed about this. As soon as the new Nic's I ordered get
here I'll be setting this up on a box here at the house. I tested the
boot disk last night after it was made and it works good. even managed
to remember how to make one and thats saying something since I don't use
that command very often at all. This old brain isn't as fried as I
thought it was. :)

Take care to know which Nic is going to be eth0 or eth1 i.e. which Nic is
which.
Smoothwall recognizes them alphabetically on vendor.
I had an old 3com 10M isa card for the (red)internet/cable connection (don't
need 100M there) and a realtek 10/100 for the (green)network.
The 3com always got recognized first and appointed "green"=:o(
Forcing me to take it out, configure the realtek as "green" and then insert
the 3com ---and no, I didn't get burned. I remembered to shutdown the box
first=:o)
Good luck,
HarM
Harm,
Then I should have tons of fun because the cards I ordered are identical.
