Just a few suggestions: IPF on OpenBSD IPFW on FreeBSD Ipfilter on Linux Watchguard SOHO Small Cisco PIX xyberpix On Tue, 1 February, 2005 13:47, DAmbrosia, Jim said:
To the group, I have a colleague who has a SOHO network using ADSL. He is using a standard Linksys router for his firewall, but has reached a limit in the number of ports it can open and manage. I don't have one on hand to check, but evidently the Linksys only has ten slots to configure ports to be opened and he needs 12-15 or so. Without a lot of money he wants to get a different firewall up and running that has more ports that it can manage. I suggested the free version of zone alarm as the only free one I'm aware of; however it turns out that he wrote his thesis on how you can crack zone alarm. Looking for another much more secure solution? Thanks, Jim,
