Hi all,
This sunday, I am installing a new network in a small web designers...
Anyway, it will have a DNS server / DHCP server / and an internal web server
/ Samba server / proxy + Firewall / Mac's too (I know how to do this now -
thanks guys)
Internal IP address of 192.168.x.x
They have a Server - not Compaq :( , but I'll not hold it against them, and
they would like run all these services together on the same machine
They have ISDN for the proxy + firewall, but I am wondering about security.
Should they be running all this together?
I am aware of the security issues with DNS and how to fix it, but I am
talking about general network security?
Should we use a small machine for a dedicated firewall and proxy?
Also I have never set up ISDN on linux, is it easy enough or a real pain?
They will be using RH7 (their preference), but we could use SUSE7 or
Mandrake 7.2 or whatever...
What do y'all think?
