I was just visiting the opwrt site and noticed the open ldap is in their download section.

It's ASUS WL-500g Deluxe. It has a 200 MHz broadcom/mipsel CPU, 4 MB flash, 32 MB ram, 2 USB2 ports, 5 network ports (to use as a switch or 5 separate network cards). I connected a USB stick to one of the USB ports and the root filesystem is there (instead of the 4 MB flash). The router costs about 70 euro / 80 usd. Capabilities? It's Linux, so it can do everything :) http://wiki.openwrt.org/TableOfHardware#head-34991459c386514e56db26b0f51743ce57d27af1 > the cheapy routers that use firmware woun't be able to dynamically write > this data would they. any change to data would require a "firmware > upgrade". Exactly - I replaced the original firmware with OpenWRT - http://openwrt.org - a distro for such small routers listed in the link I gave above. > also, how would you manage the router remotely? ssh? a web interface? > how would you alter any smb.conf settings? It has a basic web interface (for setting network, dns, gateway, wireless etc.), but yes, mostly with SSH. > i agree your router would be a cool thing, but you have very little > admin functionality.
