Hi all,
I am doing my Senior Project shortly for my degree and have decided that I
would like to build a Linux firewall which also is configured for IP
Masquerading and DNS using Bind. I really just wanted ideas from some of
the more experienced users on this list who have done the same type of
setup for themselves.
Currently I have a Debian server and have access to 2 static IP
addresses. I also have a Windows 2000 box and a Windows NT4.0 box and the
current network is using a Linksys router.
I would be using probably a Pentium 100 with 48mg ram as my firewall PC
which has 2 ethernet cards.
But I wonder if I should consider using my current Debian server which is a
Pentium 500? As you can see I am quite unsure as to the best approach to
this project. I do appreciate your comments and maybe a helping hand in
guiding me in the right direction. I might add I have no firewall experience.
