Re: [leaf-user] multiple static ip address router/firewall
None of the over-the-counter router-in-a-boxes are going to be able to handle multiple static IPs, with the possible exception of a Linksys that's had it's firmware replaced with a Linux-based one from the hardware hacking groups. An entry level Cisco is hideously expensive; I found two on Pricewatch for $389 USD from a retailer with truly bad reviews. Last time I looked for one (which, admittedly, was a couple of years ago) the same model was going for $1500 USD refurbished. I adore Cisco equipment and the IOS, but it is way too pricey if you're not running a major site - and even then, it's questionable. You're going to be far better off with Bering uClibc and any kind of hardware than you are spending the money a Cisco will cost, especially since most of them you'll need to buy a second ethernet card for your external interface and actually get a license for IOS.

RE: [leaf-user] multiple static ip address router/firewall
Thanks George, That's what I was afraid of. It looks like my options now are to build (or buy cheep dell ($300 w/ no OS)) computer to handle firewall/routing or go with the wrap or soekris. I plan on having multiple video streams going through this router/firewall nearly 24/7. (i.e. Lots of bandwidth, very few connections) Do you think I need the extra cpu of a regular computer or will the wrap be able to handle it?

Re: [leaf-user] multiple static ip address router/firewall
Honestly, I'm not up on the specs for the WRAP or Soekris boards, but I'd be fairly surprised if they wouldn't serve admirably. I'm currently using, of all things, a Microsoft wireless router that normally just serves as my AP point (we just moved, and I have to rebuild my LEAF box now that I have a connection the old ISA 3Com cards would throttle) and I've had a radio stream, 2 connections to World of Warcraft, and about 5 threads downloading large files without a real problem. Given that the thing is probably the most underpowered router-in-a-box I've seen, just about anything should work fine for you. Andrew Nance wrote: Thanks George, That's what I was afraid of.

I can't tell you very much about it, both teammembers who have some experience with it are on a well deserved vacation :-) You need the modules that fit with your hardware, you can find info on the lm-sensors homepage. You can use lcd4linux to read the info from the sensors or you could build a lm-sensors userspace package with buildtool (packages not yet in CVS). If you're not able to build the userspace package with buildtool, drop me a mail offlist and I will send the package to you.

[leaf-user] Bering-uClibc packages in testing
Hi all; as you probably know there some packages in "testing" for Bering-uClibc: http://leaf.sourceforge.net/bering-uclibc/index.php?module=pagemaster&PAGE_user_op=view_page&PAGE_id=3&MMN_position=3:3#TESTING Those packages has been build by user request, provided without any further documentation and has been gone through minimal testing, just to see if they start successfully. If you want to help LEAF Bering-uClibc, you may want to test one of these packages, maybe provide some documentation and/or just give feedback. (Scott Merrill: squid shouldn't be in testing anymore - you helped a lot to improve it). Most notable recent additions has been the lm-sensors packages and tor (http://tor.eff.org/). thx kp --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the 'Do More With Dual!' webinar happening July 14 at 8am PDT/11am EDT.
