I''ve just put in production a Linux firewall with 4 ethernet interfaces and 3 openvpn tun virtual interfaces. With Shorewall everything work like a charm (only a little hassle with some details, due to bad configuration, not bugs!) Great tool! Tom and other Shorewall developers, you all are great!

And this comes with better control of in/out flow. And we can use more than one ethernet interface (yeeha) on a single internet host. It also has better control over what is logged and to where. All in all, we are very happy we changed. Thanks to Tom and the team.... great work. kind regards Graham Miller Web Enhanced Solutions Australia "Spam emails are the mosquitoes of the Internet -- numerous, annoying and often carrying nasty viruses." - Senator Richard Alston. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?

So I''m not the only one running vintage software ;)"Vintage" is a euphemism for "unsupported and possibly insecure". I can''t see how *any* Linux box with an uptime of over two years could possibly be secure, since the kernel has had numerous vulnerabilities documented in that time.
