similar to: Best Firewall Suggestions?

Well FWbuilder is NOT easy. The documentation does not match the current GUI. Now the box is locked up. I will have to pull it again, hook it up to a kybd/VGA and reset iptables.... Maybe Shoreline with webmin.... Problem is I want a REAL router/firewall with little work. Both public and private nets have routable addresses. No NATing for me! I just help write the RFC ;) And all the

We are looking for a good firewall replacement which will basically do pot blocking and QOS. Our current solution just plain stinks.. We basically need to handle the traffic of a few web servers, mail server and asterisk box. The most traffic this device will need to handle is what can be shoved through a T1. I don't mind buying an appliance to get something solid but IP Cop just looks

Hey, The company I work for is in the market for a new firewall. Right now we're hosting all of our own stuff (on CentOS servers) behind an old checkpoint firewall. I think Checkpoint is overkill for our needs and very expensive, plus I don't like the "per-user" charges of some commercial solutions. What do you guys suggest that we upgrade to? Here are some of the

Hi, I have a weird issue that I hope someone can help me with. I have 2 test computers and I've changed each the roles of each one with the same results. I have one xlite client running across a VPN and another connecting directly from the WAN via the external IP. The client connecting directly to the external IP can call the client running across the VPN no problem. However, the client

Hello, I set up an script witch connects my rsyncd server. But the IPs for rsyncd Server and Client have no DNS Name, and so rsync trys to lookup for a DNS Name for this IPs. This causes a long DNS Timeout! My question: is there a commandline option to disable this "feature"? Or can you give me quick "hack around"? Best regards -- Clemens Gesell <cgesell@astaro.de> |

I am considering replacing my old checkpoint and watchguard firewalls witha single Linux box using iptables and shorewall. I have two ISP''s (with separate routing tables), two DMZ''s, at least one VPN to a remote office, and a local trusted network. The configuration will look like: +----------------+ | | net0 ----------+ eth1

I know a lot of you are using IPCop where you work. They have three (3) updates posted, during the past two (2) days. The last one, I'm getting an error, when I try to Download it, and I will report that to the IPCop list or bugzilla after I send this message. "No such file or directory http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/ipcop/ipcop-1.4.21-update.i386.tgz.gpg?download" The problem I

Well I think this system is back on 3.5. How do I tell? Have not used it in a while... I need a NAT for some quick testing and this box was available. Only a 6gb drive, so I can't install Astaro (which I have licenses for). So is there a simple way to turn on NATing? Should I upgrade to 4.2? This box is behind a firewall, so security risks are not the issue. This time.

I have purchased a used Compaq DL360 which I was going to use as a proxy server. Presently, we are using a cheap box with ipcop which is working fine but it didn't have much RAM (64MB), etc. This new box we will want to run squid and perhaps dansguardian for filtering (this is a non-profit company) and I'm wondering if I should just put ipcop on it or would it be smarter/better to install

Hello everybody, i am searching a solution for a videoconferencing, Any solution (Free/commercial). Asterisk is a great software, but recently we have more and more demands about videoconferencing of 3 or more peoples, Existing solutions are heavy and costly, around 2500? for 1 client. This is insane. Is there any solutions out there for non millionaires ? Or even Free ? I remember a company who

Hello, I would like to know how Asterisk deal in this case: Assume I have a Main Asterisk Server located in UK, and another box that have PSTN interfaces located in China, now the purpose is to FW calls through PSTN. Assuming I have a client who is calling from Japan to my main switch in UK and he is calling China, (japan have latency around 500ms to UK and 100ms to China), how asterisk

Hi, I am trying to use two products that use SysLinux and finally realised the SysLinux is the cause of my woes. I'm trying to use Freesco and IPCop. IPCop version 1.3 used a different boot loader to 1.4 which uses SysLinux. I have been through numerous trials and tribulations in trying to get Freesco to work but eventually gave up and went with IPCop. I kept getting the "Boot

I'm running Asterisk 1.2.13 on a Solaris 10 X86 box behind an IPCop firewall on a 5Mbps down/512 up cable connection. I'm having sound quality problems when users call in for voicemail and with music on hold. The sound is choppy and muffled while souding pretty good for calls inside the network. I'd appreciate some pointers as to where to start looking to improve things. I've

Hi folks, I read quite some posts about "Destination host unreachable" problems before, but none could help me to solve my issue. So here we go: This is what I am using: SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop 10 SP1 - Current with all updates Network configuration of my dom0: foobar:~ # ip a 1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP> mtu 16436 qdisc noqueue link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd

I have a broadcom bcm5722 and a dual intel pro/1000 pt nic in a dell t110. The setup sees the cards and i put them into automatic mode. After the install no cards are detected at all. Astaro 8.01 detects and utilizes all of these cards just fine. I have also tried ubuntu server 10.04 lts and they work fine. I'm curious if this is a bug with Centos 6?

What is everyone using for a firewall? I'm currently using www.astaro.com but their recent releases have soured me on ASL as a practical solution on my hardware (1.2MHz Athlon, 30G, and 256M). I only have 4 computers going through the firewall wall but it's consistently at 50% cpu load. There is very little network traffic (<10k bits per second on the wan connection, < 40k

Is there a list of which kernel versions (are supposed to) work with (each version of) klibc? I do recall reading something that said klibc should run under any version of the kernel, regardless of which version it is compiled against. Following the new instructions on this list earlier (to use the KLIBCKERNELSRC= parameter to point to the installed kernel headers) as well as also making the

Hello everybody, for just one week I try to install three servers on an OpenSuSE 10.3 dom0 equipped with 4 NICs. One server is an OX using the onboard NIC via xenbr0. This server runs!! For my IPCop server I intended to use the three remaining NICs (Intel Pro100/S, 3Com 3C590, Realtek RTL-8139). These three NICs should be used natively by my IPCop. So I tried to use the pciback driver. I wrote a

I need a decent, easy, firewall on Centos. This is for test systems, so I do not need a lot. For 'a lot', I use and Astaro firewall. I had used Firestarter once, but found out that it cannot handle routing between a public and private network. Basically saying this is impossible. Of course, if your private network is addressed per RFC 1918 (that I co-authored), I can understand
