Re: [leaf-user] Is my NIC the bottleneck?
Your ISP's theoretical 768 Kilo bps compared to your NIC's theoretical 10 Mega bps. Me thinks your 10Mb NIC is not guilty. Do you run your DSL modem as a modem only, or does it do DHCP, DNS and firewall as well? Gus [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote on 15-04-2004 00:10:31: pn] I'm still running E2B on a P166. I have 768K SDSL, and my leaf box is connected to the DSL modem via a 10Mbps NIC. The best speed I can download from anywhere is in the 70something KB/sec (as reported on a Windows box on the internal network). I think I should be able to do faster downloads, but am not sure where I'm getting bottlenecked. = - Peter Nosko ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials Free Linux tutorial presented by Daniel Robbins, President and CEO of GenToo technologies.

Re: [leaf-user] Bering still active?
Eric, list, Having installed, configured and put in place a Bering firewall, I read more and more about the Bering derivative called Bering uClibc. The latest release was in January 2004 (unless I'm missing something :-). Maybe I should have used this version instead?

Re: [leaf-user] Bering still active?
Thanks Erik for taking the time with the distro. I don't know how to thank people enough for their work in the Open Source community. The small additions that I sometimes provide feel like a fart in cosmos compared to your efforts. The fact that you have acknowledged a future for Bering has encouraged me and I'm configuring a Bering V1.2 diskette as I write this. One question that comes to mind for the future of Bering is of course if there are any ideas for a 2.6 based Bering distro?

[leaf-user] Future development
Hi, I'm new to the list, and I have not even tried to install LEAF yet. I have read the subjects of the FAQ. Since it's getting too hard to maintain my RH installation on my 486 router/firewall, I'm looking for any of these 'specialized distributions'. I've been searching the 'Net to try to find the 'best' distro for my needs and whishes. I've come to the conclusion that LEAF will most likely come very close. Still: - Are there any plans on porting LEAF to the 2.4 series of kernels and most importantly, are there any plans on replacing ipchains with iptables? - If yes, then are there any rough estimates on when such an effort might potentially be undertaken? I couldn't find any pointers to this subject in the FAQ. (Did I miss something? Pointers to TFM appreciated.) N.B. This is *not* a *request*. I highly appreciate all of those taking their private time to develop this distribution. I participate in other efforts so I understand how difficult it can be. My intention is just to understand what is the projected future for LEAF, as part of my decision process.

[leaf-user] Etherlink III 509 with 3c59x.o
