mmm, I think I would disagree with you in this case. the box is going to
be=
a=20
gateway. These services are not present on the outside interface and the
on=
ly=20
connection that is will be ssh to get in from work.

I don't see why you can't have services running on the gateway box - ok
the=
=20
more you have the more chance you'll blow a hole in the security but you=20
shouldn't fix testing by seperation.

All the best

> Re: [ukha_d] ADSL / USBEventhough this should work, number one
firewall r=
ule is not to have any services on it. If there is any chance then you
shou=
ld use another box for this. What about your SGI?
