Thanks again for all your helpful answers to my initial post. I took the "Alix Board & pfSense" solution, and it is now up & running live since two days, with a bridged Zyxel P2802. Jabber & ssh connections are now stable (not a single timeout since the activation), and everything else is still working fine with a good performance, so I guess the initial problem was solved. Time spent: - 1h for reading/posting on the swinog ML :) - 30min to organize the hardware (thanks to Filip @ Webkitchen.ch!) - 30min to find the proper null-modem adapter and especially gender-changer: 2x 9pin/F (merci Ueli :-) - 3h for RTFM, setup & testing - 15min for the "going live" - 20min to solve some small issues with suggestions/help from #swinog irc channel Bonus: PPTP VPN server installed and activated in 5 minutes. So at the moment, I am quite happy with this http://www.pfsense.com/ based setup. Testing will continue for about 1-2 weeks, and if everything remains fine, I will add a backup device to the setup. Regards & happy Easters, Olivier _______________________________________________ swinog mailing list swinog@lists.swinog.ch http://lists.swinog.ch/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/swinog
