Hi Mike I trid Untangle last night..... It suprise me how slow it is.... PIII600 with 512MB ram and it loads for ever. .. I know it looks so cool... But I need it works in the basement quite like a stone.... I think most case ppl set it up and forget forever unless it need upgrade.
The requirement for untangle is Resource Up to 50 Users Up to 100 UsersUp to 300 Users Intel/AMD-compatible Processor 800 MHz 1.2 GHz 1.6 GHz Memory 512 MB 1 GB 2 GB Hard Drive 20 GB 30 GB 40 GB Any way, just my 2 cents... I switched back to m0n0... Up running in 1 mins... I don't like to get another new machine for that...
