suggestions for delivering mail to win clients
Hi everyone, I am in the planning to set a firewall/masquareding box which will be connected to the internet via DSL. There will be approximately 20 local PC's which are connected to the firewall box. The PC's will be using windows 98 and Windows NT. 1) What would be the easiest way to deliver fetched mail from the net to the local machines 2) Is there a firewall application which will allow setting it up from a windows machine via a browser 3) I have found putty and openssh for windows clients http://www.networksimplicity.com/openssh/ anyone using these and anything vital TIA -- Togan Muftuoglu

This is really simple if you are willing to allow the internal clients
access to the server that will spool mail. You could provide internal access
to POP or IMAP.....

Hi Togan As Jon says, it's easy. I thought that I'd just add my personal experience: We used to have a mail system based on Outlook/Exchange Server/NT3.51, talking to the mail stores at our ISP. :-( As you may guess, this was *very* unreliable. As a backup, I used a 486DX4/100 PC with SuSE Linux 6.x (don't remember the exact version), with Netscape as the mail client. This was very successful and the solution cost something like $10,000 less than the less reliable Micro$oft one! Cheers Matthew Smith Togan Muftuoglu wrote:

Smoothawall has a real neet web interface , Very easy to set up , and you could look inot freesco from www.freesco.org . Both work well as frewall/routers and can use left over hardware. Smoothwall is easier while freesco is smaller ie router on a disk , so you dont even need the drive. bothe work with lancards/dsl/cablemodem or dial up.
