A. Packet filtering
B. Proxy
C. Stateful firewall
If the answer is A, a Linux box using IPChains can, IMHO, be made as
secure as a 'black box' product that does only packet filtering.
If the answer is B, look into either/both of basic masquerade, or
installing 'squid'.
If the answer is C, perhaps someone else could help you... ;)

1. Need recommendation for linux-based e-mail server.
Hi,
I would appreciate any feedback to help me with this problem.
Our company is trying to set up an e-mail/web infrastructure.
We need a box that can sit between the WAN router and our
local LAN. The following are the requirements.
1) OK to be commercial and/or expensive.
2) Should distribute internal e-mail and route
mail externally. Should provide POP3 and IMAP
mailboxes.
3) Should support the internet and and intranet (different websites
etc.)
4) Should provide a firewall.
5) Should provide VPN functionality so that traveling employees
can access their e-mail securely. (Ideally, the VPN client
should work from a browser, or at least be cross-platform,
windows and linux). But we can live without the cross-platform
in a pinch.
6) Should be scaleable to several hundred users.
7) SHOULD BE EASILY ADMINISTRABLE. A piece of cheese should be
able to administer it (my boss's own words).
8) A DHCP server built in.
9) Commercial support should be available.
My boss wants to use NT with a big-ass server from Dell, but he said
he is willing to consider linux if I can find a solution that
supports the above criteria.
I looked into the Cobalt Qube, but it does not support VPNs and
does not scale beyond 150 users. (Am I wrong?) Does anyone sell some
software that puts together all the free linux tools into an easily
useable form? We would be willing to pay fairly serious money.
Thanks,
George.
