Any suggestions? >tia, http://www.freebsd.org Your question is quite a large one with many aspects to it.. i.e. security, user management, routing etc. Have a look at the handbook on the FreeBSD page and go from there. If someone were to answer your question completely, it would take, well... uh a book-- i.e. just like the handbook at http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/handbook.html When you run into specific problems, post the questions here. Another great resource is dejanews. Go to http://www.dejanews.com/home_ps.shtml and enter in mailing.freebsd.*,comp.unix.bsd.freebsd.* in the "Forum" section, and then type your keywords in the "Power Search" field. You will find everything you need there. ---Mike Mike Tancsa (mdtancsa@sentex.net) Sentex Communications Corp, Waterloo, Ontario, Canada To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
