Optical devices not required as will install Linux via USB. There's been lots of good advice. We also use Alix boards (D13) for low encrypted throughput scenarios. They are very good. Will apparently work with IPCop 1/2 (but we use pfsense: http://linitx.com/product/12647 If however you need a bit more welly then try one of these: http://linitx.com/product/13406 with one of these: http://linitx.com/product/12576 and these: http://linitx.com/product/13116 These will fit in any standard box or any MiniITX case. We find PSU issues (correctly mentioned by one respondent) to be reduced by using these: http://linitx.com/product/10916 and a 12V brick: http://linitx.com/product/12342 They still fail but replacements are trivially available from multiple sources. -- Stabilys Ltd www.stabilys.com 244 Kilburn Lane LONDON W10 4BA 0845 838 5370 -- Gllug mailing list - [email protected] http://lists.gllug.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/gllug
