I guess it depends on whether you have a fast enough GPU to do crypto and/or compression (not sure FreeBSD supports the compression features though) at the speeds the soekris cards can do. I assume by cheap you mean inexpensive, not poor quality (not that I can speak for Sorens crypto card quality, but the Soekris isn't too bad). An alternative might be a system with a Via C3 CPU such as a Nexcom 1030, although I haven't heard any results from anyone with one of those machines (I have two, but haven't had time to test this out - too many other features to support/fix/fix/yeah). --Bill --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
