Re: Need Light Network Enabled Distro..
Hey elboricua!
No choice in board yet. I guess its fair to say that I will pick the board based on the OS and the features i need from it (applications)
So in pf QOS can be implemented?
pf can do the routing and firewall correct?
OpenBSD also .. that would be sweet and yes the soekris is what I'm looking at. Saw that on undeadly.org 
Thanks...

| Yes QOS can be implemented in PF. It's called ALTQ. And yes it can do the routing and firewalling, and is much easier to setup a ruleset than in linux IMO once you get used to the syntax.
Depending on the network load a 4801 or the cheaper 45xx series would work great. If you plan on having a high load I think the newer 5501-70 (500 mhz processor and 512MB ram) would be the better choice. It all depends on how many pc's are going to run behind it.

| Thank you very much .. Glad I took a liking to OpenBSD when I recently deployed it as my front-end mail gateway .. Now a new reason to deploy it.
So the bundle should look like:
OpenBSD
PF
ALTQ
OpenVPN
The soekris board we'll have to choose soon enough based on load.
Thanks again everyone
