ITR000 0 Posted January 29, 2005 I am new to the Linux world and had a few questions regarding configuring a Linux box to act as a firewall, as well as, connecting to my local xDSL service. As mentioned I would like the Linux box to connect via PPPoE to my ISP (xDSL) and provide firewalling to the rest on my internal segment. I would like to know what Linux distro would be the best for this application, as well, what NIC's are recommended since I will need two. The hardware I have allocated for this project; AMD K6-2 - 400 512 MB RAM Adaptec 2940 SCSI Card 40 GB SCSI drive Acer Motherboard Any help would be greatly apperciated. Share this post Link to post
