    gore,

    I liked FreeBSD in the 4.x days. A pain to set up, but you only needed to do it once! Setting up the X driver timings manually was interesting, but I'm glad we don't have to do that any...

    Separate web servers, or not?

    Hi Guys,

    I see you're all complaining of it being quiet round here, so I'll give you something to do... help me! ;-)

    Just in case anyone is interested, it turns out that the Vyatta commercial edition DOES allow filtering by TCP flags. Unfortunately the community edition doesn't.

    Hi again, guys.

    I'm currently playing with several of the firewall distros and today came across a problem I don't know how to handle correctly.

    There will be web servers behind the firewalls, but they have their own redundancy. The important part is not losing protection and having service continuity if one firewall fails.

    Hi CTO,
