Hi, Something along these lines: A linux box with a good network connection. And the server software FGMS http://fgms.sourceforge.net/ FGMS can probably be built and run on most Unix like systems (but it might be more or less painful.. :) mpserver06, which I run, is a very old Sun workstation running Solaris. It is more than powerful enough for the network connection it has, but to collect the build dependencies is a pain. (I have not managed to build a newer FGMS than last summer's, but at this time that is still fine.) There is currently no access control what so ever in FGMS but access control can be implemented separately, e.g. using packet filtering and some kind of web based session login that can update the filter rules. I suspect someone reasonably at home with web services can cobble together something simple but working for a Linux based host in a fairly short time.
