Re: IPCop and JReceiver on the same box - WAS - RE: Fuji Thi ngy

Pedro,

Should really be no reason but bear in mind that distros such as IPCop
are
really intended as 'Appliances' which serve a single purpose rather than
being
multi purpose server boxes.  As you introduce more software there is
always a
risk you could introduce security risks particularly if you run it with
only one
zone.

Also, updates for these boxes tend to toast anything that was there
before.

As ever, Caveat Utilitor


Mark

Speaking of IPCop, is it possible to install JReceiver on the same box as
IPCop?



Cheers

If you run a PC-based firewall like Smoothwall / IPCop, you'll find it
comes
with a transparent proxy (Squid) that works well...





Don't use Windows for this - use Linux, even if you need to install Squid

hand,
