+1 for IPCop, I've used it at a lot of clients. AdvProxy and URLfilter add-ons make it easy to have a "whitelist" of acceptable websites, or you can add the DansGuardian add-on if you want a more dynamic setup that monitors the web traffic to filter out objectionable content. IPCop has a built-in backup utility, you back up the setting to a file which you store off the IPCop box. If the box breaks, reinstall from the same ISO you downloaded before -- takes about 15 minutes -- then restore from the backup and you're up and running in less than half an hour from turning on the new hardware. I've run IPCops on P-IIs, P-IIIs, and even on a 486. -- Angus Scott-Fleming GeoApps, Tucson, Arizona 1-520-290-5038 Security Blog: http://geoapps.com/ ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
