Re: Stable NT based solution

Peter,

I do not intend to connect them straight to the net, there is adequate
firewalling at each side.  (FreeBSD bridging firewalls with shaping)

The problem is, I like Cipe but I'm not very experienced with linux just
yet.  It's a shame the NT versions aren't stable yet...
