I have just been having a quick look at the plex86 website. As far as I can
see, it is not yet ready for serious use - is that correct?
I intend to put together a linux server for our company in the near future.
It should support web servering, a database, email, internet proxy, and
various other services. I also want it to run as the firewall for access to
our broadband internet link (when we get it), but I have heard several
people say that the firewall should be a seperate machine. Would it be
feasable to use a plex86 virtual machine as a firewall and router? I gather
from the website that plex86 is at least able to boot linux properly - could
it then be used to isolate the firewall "machine" from the rest of the Linux
box?
