Hi Rupert Koenig, if you have an 1/2 ISDN-Channel (1 B-Channel of 64 kbit/s), it is enough to use an 386DX40 an paketfilter firewall with ipchains. see also at http://www.little-idiot.de/firewall/zusammen-129.html I use a 486DX33 with 16 MB and a teles isdn card (under linux no problem) and the speed is enough the link abouve is an good howto in german to setup a firewall MFG Stephan -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Rupert Koenig [SMTP:lax@gmx.li] Gesendet am: Donnerstag, 6.
