John, I'd like to pipe in as well. IPChains would be nice. What i idealy wish for is something like "frazierwall" which is based on "coyote" and has a few enhancements with your web admin interface.I have toyed around with the code but cannot come up with anything useful to send you. (i suck at coding :) ) Also, the ability to have a built in script that emails your ip address for us dynamic ip users such as "ipwatch". Thanks for your time. You have a great and stable product.

John, Are there any plans for further development for STN ?? A while ago there was request for suggestions from you and a flurry of replies, but since then all has been quiet. A couple of things I'd like to see are :- 1. A way of installing on a hard disk - I have tried the documented way and a number of suggested variations, but without success. It still seems to insist on getting some files from the floppy drive :-( Ideally this should allow multiple installations so that I can choose different configurations ... OR a single installation would be great if there was a way of having several ENVI files and have some way of choosing between them. The main problem I have is that I have several ISPs with different phone numbers and usernames/passwords and it would be better if I could schedule which ISP was used for certain times of day and days of week, with perhaps a way of overriding it from the admin web page. At the moment I manually swap floppies and re-boot :-( 2. An _OCCASIONAL_ use print spooler. Yes, I know that would need a hard disk. Yes, I am willing to accept the performance impact. If need be, I'll upgrade the STN box to something with a bit more steam, memory, etc STN has proved a reliable and very effective solution to my basic needs so far, but I am beginning to consider where I go from here.
