Re: [Sheflug] Re: Good NIC to use with smoothwall

[David Holden <xxxxx [at] xxxxxxxx>]

Hi Richard, Alex,

 thanks a lot for the info. I'll certainly look into IPCOP.


Richard, the links that you pointed me to were very interesting.

I asked a question of the smoothwall user list initially about how 
smoothwall worked as I did not fully understand it from the documentation.

I got 7 very helpful replies from other list users that cleared things 
up for me and one very unhelpful/glib reply from richard morrel about 
how I should by the product.

I replied and explained that since we are a small business I like to 
evaluate a system before recommending to my boss buying it but I got no 
reply to this.

I subsequently sent a post to the list asking about a good NIC to use 
and this was refused by the list moderator without any reason (this is 
why I asked here),  I mailed the list moderator asking why the post was 
refuse but got no reply

Maybe I'm just being a bit paranoid....


live and let live.


 Best Regards,

          Dave.
