Hi Craig, > Now what i need to know, is woody stable enough for a proxy/firewall machine
...no prob at all, woody is nearly stable and i use it since half a year without any probs as a firewall/squid-proxy and as a productive system (intranet-server) for 20 users. for sure these are two different maschines :-) regards joris -- SBF Gruppe - http://www.sbf.de Steinhof 51 - D-40699 Erkrath Tel: +49 211 20 99 51 0 Fax: +49 211 20 99 51 88
