Well, there are always Juniper Networks boxes :-) I do the same (even more in some points) as Juniper boxes with simple standard boxes with OpenBSD and PF. At present day my central FWs are simply standard 2 boxes (each one cost 1000 euros aprox); I remember the Juniper guy offering me a 'ch

I'm amazed at the fact that people are actually comparing FreeBSD with pf to Juniper routers. I've a bit of experience with M20s and M40s, and I can assure you they're VERY different than a little x86 PC routing packets, and are significantly faster due to hardware routing. For example, you shou

Hi List, I am running into a weird issue. On a 6.2 stable, 32bits built with options MAC, I can run pkg_add of anything. But a 6.2 stable, 64bits built with MAC won't let me do pkg_add. If anybody has an input, please advise. Below is the output on the 64 bits machine: net3# pkg_add test.tbz +CONT
