we've found the Tyan 5391 motherboard (core2duo) to run pfsense respectably - with dual intel e1000 gigabit and e100 10/100 for sync, they work pretty well. can use PCIX and PCIe card. http://www.tyan.com/product_board_detail.aspx?pid=343 there's probably an updated model. oh, the remote management card is no good, avoid. their 5372 motherboard is ok (proper intel server 5000 chipset)... avoid the 5375 (intel 5100) as its got design problems, we've had all sorts of weirdness with them. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected] Commercial support available - https://portal.pfsense.org
