Hi, first of all, this is a list related to security. Second, this list is completely in english. This will be the reason for the answer "mais bien sur". Anyway, I'll try to translate (please forgive me the errors I will certainly do :-)) --- Hi list, can you help me ? I'm in need for a RAS for Linux. To be more precise, my boss wants to have direct access to the modem (I think from outside the LAN, as I understand it) to be able to have access to the LAN. Is there any ready-to-use tool for this ? If so, is it possible to run a firewall on the same machine or would it be better to run it on a seperate computer ? TIA Paul. --- Well, AFAIR you can configure Linux to accept dial-ins from specific telephones or from every number. There is no need for a special tool as this feature is already included in SuSE-Linux. And yes, you can run a firewall on this machine. It's not necessary to have a seperate computer for it. Just my opinion. I'm not really familiar with the dial-in-possibilities of Linux, so please correct me if I'm wrong. CU --- Stephan
Hi Liste,
könnt ihr mir helfen? Ich brauch einen RAS für Linux. D.h. mein Chef will sich direkt ins Modem einwählen um Zugriff aufs LAN zu haben. Gibt es da vieleicht ein fertiges Tool für? Wenn ja: kann man eine Firewall auf auf dem gleichen Rechner laufen lassen ider besser auf einem anderen?
