I am using Slackware for most of my home pc's as well as my office pc at work. And know some of the basic's and file locations of slackware up to 10.2..
For my router i installed Freesco to a old k6-2 450mhz 128mb and
2xnc100(tulip) NIC's and it ran very well..The issue being that the
Freesco is using a older kernel and is not supporting Gigabit cards
and i might want to upgrade my home system to Gigabit (Settop boxes / media servers).
I wanted to use Slackware to replace the Freesco because of this
and maby take my httpd server of my pc and move it over to the router box and access this via ssh/ftp for uploading/changing configs tothe router box serving this.
***These things i would need..***
sshd ( lan )
smbd ( lan )
httpd ( lan & wan )
ftpd ( lan )
most of witch i can configure ok...
***the router would be a***
older asus motherboard
k6-2 450mhx (maby a p3 400mhz)
64-128mb pc100/133 ram
rlt 10/100 nic's x2
5 port hub ( until i get a good switch ) sry
adsl connection with dynamic ip via dhcp
***other systems on network***
Slackware 10.2 x2
Geexbox x1
winxppro/slack 10.2 x1
All i would need is a base install of slack with no gui at all..but
i found a cli based config program alot like freesco uses that would be sweet as hell but i lost the link and can not remeber its name so i am googleing to death on this..
If any had or have found a link about setting up a base slackbox as a router/firewall as well as daemons for it i would do backflips..
ty all
