Apologies, what I meant to say was I'm not building a standard router. I can't go with distros like pebble, shorewall or ipcop. They don't have package management as debian has it or upgrade mechanisms...
The routing i'm trying to achieve will be more like streamlined multiplexing of traffic (don't have the correct terminology yet, it will be something that audits traffic and logs it to different target, imho quite specialized so I need to have a full distro as I probably need to create some interfaces for easy maintenance, nagios, snmp, webinterface for configuration etc....) 2007/9/29, Martin Marcher <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > 2007/9/29, Kevin Mark <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > > On Sat, Sep 29, 2007 at 12:31:06AM +0200, Martin Marcher wrote: > > > Hello, > > > > > > Is the mentioned vpn card[1] ready to use in the stock debian kernel, > > > and (this is something in found in several openbsd mailing lists) will > > > openssl/gnutls use it's capabilities or would that be lost money? > > > > > > thanks for your input > > > > > > [1] http://www.soekris.com/vpn1401.htm > > > > http://pyramid.metrix.net/trac/wiki/FrequentlyAskedQuestions > > Interesting distribution, but neither the soekris net5501 nor any of > the vpn cards are mentioned there. > > Also the task of this distribution isn't in any way related to what > I'd like to build.
