Have not played with it in a couple years but try taking a look at ClarkConnect http://www.clarkconnect.com/ On Jul 8, 2009, at 7:41 AM, Nils wrote:
For file/web and quite some other services I recommend the eisfair project . It has a decent package and update management. http://www.eisfair.org/en/eisfair/news/ I have it running and serving Samba shares for quite some years on a --> Pentium II 333Mhz <-- ;-) I doubt it could be used as firewall. And if, I'd never recommend having the firewall on the same system as the data.

You just have to custom compile a kernel from the svn and enable paravirtualization. Works great, and i get full performance out of my connection (as opposed to my wrt54gl which would top out at 30-40Mbit/s) D.

I have been using Linux for several years now and have a MythTV box running. I have four PCs running and there's no Windows in this house. :-D I was playing with the idea of setting up a multi purpose server (file sharing, print server, proxy, DNS, ...). The terms multi-purpose and security do not go hand in hand, but that is a trade off I have to take because I can not afford to run a full rack. The main question is: Can I use the one machine as a firewall, using multiple network cards on different subnets, and at the same time run Squid, SMTP, DNS, DHCPD, CUPS, etc.. on it? What is the take of the experts on a situation like this? Keep in mind this is a home situation with a limited budget. Thanks.
