Re: [pfSense] Samba4 package and extend services with pfsense

2013-02-26 Thread Kendrick Vargas
We are talking about a package, right? Something people can choose to
install or... you know... not?

I like the idea of being able to turn on windows domain services on my
router. For sites with smaller installations, or where all-in-one makes
more sense than having a VM server, I don't see where this would be a
problem, so long as it's optional. This isn't any different from DNS from
my perspective. Will it integrate with the pfsense authentication? How
about WINS/DNS/DHCP integration?

I agree that a full on file server with shares is a bit much, but that
should be left up to the end user.

 Sorry but I can`t see any good point for this.

 PFsense is a well known distribution due to the stability of it`s
 core-components and as a Firewall/Router appliance, not an all in one
 distribution.

 There are dozens of linux-based file-server distributions around, even at
 a small-office you can have both PFsense and younameit sharing the same
 physical hardware but on separate VMs.

 Hi guys !


 I have worked in the Samba4 package for pfsense, not only act as a
 domain member, but also act as a domain controller and i see this as an
 opportunity to extend the pfsense to be more than a firewall and act as
 a new service on the network in a new installation in another hardware
 to act as a domain controller in Active Directory with power tools
 native firewall.

Re: [pfSense] successor to ALIX is here

Might be a little pricey, but I got Lanner to sell me a single unit. With
the hard drive mounts, etc., it was about $384 shipped and it's been a
champ. I got the 7539 just before they released the 7540. Basically the
same unit, but with Ddr3 and a better cpu.

Comes with 4 Intel PHY's... I've had mine for over a year I believe...
Reach out to them. It isn't like ordering something through Amazon, but
it's not impossible.

 a little off, but are those better as home fileserver then the soekris
 6501 ?

 for some bus links, soekris is really slow on that matter (I have one,
 tested more than once :( )

 looking for small form factor system to house an USB/eSATA HD enclosure. I
 talked to pcengines
 staff and said there is another on plans, but will take some time. So I
 ask :)

 thanks,

Re: [pfSense] looking for perfect pfsense box for home?

Don't know how late I am to the game on this suggestion, but I am quite
happy with the Lanner Inc. product I bought. I was able to get them to sell
me a single unit, the cost was fine for my needs (at the time an Atom
D510). They're rackable, and my FW-7539 has been running non-stop for
years. I can't speak for performance as my needs are really simple.

Just make sure to get the components necessary to boot it up (you may need
vga adapters, etc.)

 The "cheap" part (< $299)?  We tried a "build our own" approach and
 it's tough to get a small package.  Any old PC will do just fine if one
 adds an SSD but as someone pointed out that may use far more power in the
 long run.
