Hello I was thinking of cunstructing a small routerbox in my sparetime. Now since FreeBSD is my choise of OS i was thinking of a small box silent box. So how can I combine speed, size, silence and price? I was thinking of vias small buget systems (via Eden) and to that an extra intel pro 10/100 NIC Now how much can I expect in loss in throughput when selecting this system,since it is a budget system ;) Its just supposed to shuffle traffic as a router or perhaps as a gateway with a simple ipfw firewall. What extra features should I add to the kernel and are there any othere great hints? /John To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-net" in the body of the message
