Re: ADSL / USB



Fair enough, but unlike you most people seem to leave out the crucial
testing.

mmm, I think I would disagree with you in this case. the box is going to be
a
gateway. These services are not present on the outside interface and the
only
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
more you have the more chance you'll blow a hole in the security but you
shouldn't fix testing by seperation.

All the best

Matthew

firewall
rule is not to have any services on it. If there is any chance then you
should use another box for this. What about your SGI?
