Greetings list! I've just stumbled upon this on the m0n0wall site: http://m0n0.ch/wall/gallery/278.jpg

Someone has mounted an SBC (looks to be a PC Engines WRAP1E203 ) mounted inside of a Dell Poweredge 2x50 server. While that is very interesting, the part I found most interesting was the NIC/power bracket mounted in the PCI slot bracket. Where would a person find something like that? I could make my own with some RJ45 jacks, etch a circuit board, and fasten to a PCI bracket, but where's the fun in that? :-D

The reason why I ask is that most colo providers will charge for additional rack space for a firewall. Why not just put your firewall inside your server and save some cash? :-)
