Hello!
My employer will soon get ADSL and I'd like to get recommendations of wich
way to go about routing/gateway. There are a lot of routing/gateway switches
to choose from like Netgear, D-link but for optimum later use of a complete
Linux server with http, mail, ssh what functions are essential? Port
forwarding etc? NAT/firewall is basic in all it seems.
But, a more interesting option would be to set up a linux box as
router/gateway with an extra ethernet card. I already have this today but
with a modem and ppp. Could you recommend some HOW-TO's and man pages for
setting up a Linux ADSL router/firewall/complete internet server?
I don't have information yet of what kind of ADSL but later on we will get a
fixed ip address.
Regards,
Ake Svensson, Sweden, setting up his first professional Linux server
soon...with great help form Yellow Dog List!
