Don't buy any software. Use "freeradius" or one of the other RADIUS servers in Debian for authenticating users. Use "portslave" for managing your modems and authenticating via the RADIUS server. Use "postfix" as your mail server, and the "courier" POP and IMAP servers for users to download their mail. Use "apache" as your web server. -- I do not get viruses because I do not use MS software. If you use Outlook then please do not put my email address in your address-book so that WHEN you get a virus it won't use my address in the >From field.
