Great; this sounds like a book I'd like to have. > Any input on what you'd loke to see in the book is welcome. Internet gateway with firewall. This is something I have done a few times (at home and for my previous and my current employer). Things like split DNS, IP filtering, NAT, mail relaying to an internal mail server, etc. were not easy when I did it the first time, and can probably be done better than I have done. (Of course I am willing to share my experiences.) Mail configuration. Not a rewrite of the bat book, but perhaps some sendmail examples (with pointers into the bat book, of course). Some information about other MTAs (Postfix, Exim, Qmail). Kernel configuration. Again, I have done this often, but I am sure that there is a lot more to learn. Differences between the BSDs. *Factual* differences, no flame bait. :-) -- Juergen Nickelsen To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
