Hi, all I have tried to build a security applicance based on FreeBSD 4.7 since 2001. Which contains: central syslog server (syslogd) ntp sevice (ntpd) dhcp server (dhcpd) dns (bind) IPSec (ipsec-tools) PPTP (mpd) firewall (ipfilter) traffic shape (ALTQ) IDS (snort) Utilization monitor (MRTG) Web console including 1. report system for firewall, ids, system 2. configuration interface for some sub-system (not actually working yet) Recently, I upgraded this appliance to FreeBSD 6.0. Now I got: * a new list of required package * a custom kernel configuration file for 6.0 * collection of my custom packages (mostly perl based) Old web pages for this appliance avaliable here: http://isolution.dyndns.biz/en/si/sc/feature.html Some code are broken after upgrade to 6.0. A document to put them all togather is not completed yet. I plan to start a open source project base on current resource and the goal is to build a small and compact FreeBSD security appliance, most importantly cost effective. The first step is starting a close test before release it to public and discuss how to proceed. If you are FreeBSD power user and interested, you are welcome to contact me and receive a copy of current work. Any suggestions are always welcome.
