Re: [SLUG] firewall
Linux is Linux, For my firewall I have used RedHat, now I am using Mandrake, probably move to another distro later on. As for the firewall you only have one free option, iptables that comes standard in the kernel. There are a few guis that will help in building a firewall, also there are a few tutorials that will help you understand how iptables work > I have an old PII 200Mhz pc I would like to load linux on it and make it a > firewall > I was wondering what linux could I use and what firewall software could I > use. > > Thanks in advance > Merry Christmas everyone > > Gaza > > > -- > SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group - http://slug.org.au/ > More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug > -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug

I've tried ALSA a couple of times, but haven't had much success. (That said, it worked great when I tried out Linux 2.5.x a little while ago.) Given that multiple programs can open /dev/dsp for writing with the SBLive, and I don't require MIDI or anything zany, OSS is fine. It just works. ;-) - Jeff -- "You know, the crunchy, folk-singer part of me wants to believe that a performance is a dialogue, but I can't hear a fucking thing you're saying." - Ani DiFranco -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
[SLUG] Palm III replacement, Linux friendly?
My Palm 3 is on it's last legs, so I'm looking for a replacement handheld device. Can anyone recommend a Linux friendly device? (Palm or otherwise). The one app I need is something that does encryption, so I can encrypt all my PINS, passwords etc & carry them around with me, and also synchronise and edit them on my desktop. On my Palm 3, I currently use Secret (http://linkesoft.com) - sort of supported on Linux, but not totally - I need to use Windows to edit the contents on a desktop. Any help appreciated. -- Savanna | Free as in 'free speech', GnuPG Pub Key E40FAE08 | not 'free beer'. -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
Re: [SLUG] firewall
Hi Gaza, Try IPCop it's great. I'm using 0.1.2 and have used 0.1.1 prior to that for nearly a year www.ipcop.org v0.1.2beta = 2.2.23 v0.1.3alpha = 2.4.20 It's small enough to fit on a Compact Flash, and includes support for 3 PSTN, ISDN, Ethernet and PCI ADSL. For ADSL Bridged ethernet, PPPoE and PPPoA are supported. 0.1.2 even includes ISDN DOV support. You can have up to 3 interfaces (Green, Red and Orange), it also includes a proxy cache plus IPSec.

Check out Smoothwall www.smoothwall.org - a firewall appliance distro. Doesn't require much linux experience to run. There's been some ruckus around Smoothwall (search google), so some of the developers have released a branch called IPcop. I used Smoothwall & really like it.

[SLUG] Live! ALSA under Woody
I asked a while ago what sound system people recommended for Woody, and answer seemed to be ALSA. Well, I've not been able to get it going - this after spending much time reading FAQs and being on the Creative IRC channel. :-( Does anyone have ALSA working under Woody with a emu10k1 card (SB Live!)? If not, is everyone using OSS? ... or is it just me -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug

Re: [SLUG] Need Help with SiS 900-based ethernet card
On Mon, 2002-12-23 at 01:02, Dennis M. Gray wrote: > Can anyone direct me to some source of help? I don't know if redhat is still shipping with linuxconf - but it lets you specify a driver for your ethernet card. If it does still ship, just specify sis900 and it "should work". If you don't have linuxconf, the change it will make is to add a line like this to /etc/modules.conf: alias eth0 sis900 Try that and then ifconfig it and it might just work. (though once the driver is working, it's probably as easy to use the redhat clicky programs to set this up so it starts when you boot the machine).
