Hi all,
I'm having "trouble" with my soundcards (plural, but only trying one card at a
time).
I have an on board VT82C686 AC97 sound card which works when I "test sound"
but does not play the KDE start up sound (or any other sounds) and when I

Rod,
As Terry pointed out, you don't need to run X to
run a firewall; for that you just need a firewall script,
the iptables package, and a kernel that supports iptables.
(unless you use ipchains or even ipfwadm; a bit old though)
Then link to it so it starts at boot, or perhaps whenever

Hate to say it, but since no-one else has replied ...
I suspect the shortest course to success would
be to dump this card and get a better one. The
1505 is quite a basic and ancient beast.
You can pick up a very good card for less than $80
these days.

On our firewall/router (Mandrake 8.2) cron normally sends nice little

Nik,
It looks as if you've got your access control lists set incorrectly for
Squid. Edit your /etc/squid/squid.conf appropriately.
You'll need to look out for lines like
acl src
and
http_access
The final http_access rule should be
http_access deny all
All the best...

Are there any analysis/logging applications that could give me a
breakdown of the types of traffic in and out of my Linux internet
gateway? e.g. breakdowns by port, protocol or whatevber may be useful
for figuring out my unexplained incoming data totals.

No, I have checked that Proxy Requests are not enabled in httpd.conf.
Alsom the logs show that the requests are all returning 404 (not found).

In the memtotal line is that including swap memory?

What this really looks like is you have some sort of spyware on one of the
machines in your network.
Check your windows boxes with Adaware - looks like they are downloading adds
