Well, I've finally graduated to cable-modem, and picked up a PC to hopefully use as firewall/proxy/whatever (our cable modems are notoriously insecure). Someone have advice on how to do this - tips/tricks/pitfalls? Maybe a good idea of which readme's and howto's to use? I'm not bad at config, but this part's pretty new to me... The PC is blank right now, and I'm thinking about just setting it up as a basic home PC using eth0 (the cable modem) as the FTP for pulling Debian to it, then adding whatever I need - I'm thinking ipfwadmin might be enough, put 2 NIC's in it and connect the second one to my hub and the other PC's. Sound practical?
Anyone wanting to give advice feel free - [EMAIL PROTECTED]
