  • Firewalls...

    Hi guys


    I need the names of a few good firewalls...


    I'm want to share my internet connection & My current one is no good to me, it's a client f/w, i need a server f/w.

    If anyone could point me in the right direction to a 'free' one, please pm me

    Smoothwall

    Hi Bertie!

    The F/W I use is a freebie one called SmoothWall.

    It's a Linux based Network firewall, which gives you things like a built-in DHCP server, Web Proxy server, NAT Router + a really tight firewall.

    You can download it at http://www.smoothwall.org.

    Download the ISO and burn it to CD. All you need to do then is find any old PC (My Smoothie is running on a P166 with 64Mb or Ram and a 2Gb disk) with 2 network cards and a CD-ROM drive.

    Boot the PC with the Smoothwall CD-ROM and it does everything else for you. Once you've built your Smoothie, all of the Admin is done with a Web browser. It's that easy.

    Take it easy!
