Re: Dead Firewall!
IPCOP is a very basic Linux version and all TUI based for setup. The worst that you have to run is the setup.sh script that goes through and configures the NIC's and such.

RE: Dead Firewall!
Make darned sure you have the most recent IPCOP release, of course (Shawn knows this better than most!) as there have been various exploits for EVERYTHING. And follow their implementation recommendations related to turning SSH off (a VPN or tunnel is trivial to add); this is not optional. I will try to be there to watch the fun...but might not be able to. http://www.ipcop.org/index.php?name=Newsfile=articlesid=41 Date: Wed, 28 Jan 2009 08:12:56 -0700 Subject: Re: Dead Firewall!

Re: Dead Firewall!
Yes, it is the same box, Kevin! It does have a floppy drive, but I have no idea whether it still works. Until lately, the box has been humming along nicely so I have had no need to do anything with it. Didnt you do a network install of the current firewall software way back when? KevinO wrote: farli wrote: OK - I will plan on being there with the computer, a monitor, and the kb! FYI, I use the firewall on a small network - two other computers - on a dialup network! This firewall is our only access to the internet. You guys (and girls) are great! If you are using the little white box that I think you are, it will not boot from CD (even if opened up and an external drive connected), and has no floppy either. There is a 34 pin connector for a floppy, accessible once the plastic shell is removed. By connecting an external floppy, a network (or CDROM) install can be performed. --- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss

This firewall is our only access to the internet. You guys (and girls) are great! If you are using the little white box that I think you are, it will not boot from CD (even if opened up and an external drive connected), and has no floppy either. There is a 34 pin connector for a floppy, accessible once the plastic shell is removed. By connecting an external floppy, a network (or CDROM) install can be performed. -- KevinO --- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss
