m0n0wall, the php-based FreeBSD firewall router (and Soekris front-end), has merited new attention: http://www.tomsnetworking.com/Reviews-162-ProdID-MONOWALL2-1.php
This how-to has a lot of the stuff that was lacking from the http://m0n0.ch/ documentation, including newbie-level explanations of its firewall and rules settings--including screenshots of the rules pages! Let's hope it makes setting up the thing a little easier. As the author says, it's not that m0n0wall's difficult, it's just that it's so flexible you need to know what you want to do first. In other words, "Con: Firewall configuration could be daunting for some users." Rob P.S. The latest version of m0n0wall was released a couple weeks ago. It includes the captive portal enhancement. -- NYCwireless - http://www.nycwireless.net/ Un/Subscribe: http://lists.nycwireless.net/mailman/listinfo/nycwireless/ Archives: http://lists.nycwireless.net/pipermail/nycwireless/
