      Hello Kurt,              08 May 18 22:17 at you wrote to me:               KW> The great thing about console Linux is that it runs in such little        KW> CPU/memory.

It comes pre-configured with        different colored "zones" (networks) for the home, such as red for anything        public-facing like a web server or a BBS, a green zone which is your LAN, and        a blue zone for WiFi (allowing you to offer public WiFi if you want). The        distro also will do full country blocks by using GeoIP and auto-updating IP        tables.              I've just not had the time nor energy to do it, unfortunately, but I'm hoping        I will be able to get to this soon.              Later,       Sean              ... !retupmoc siht edisni deppart ma I !pleH       --- GoldED+/LNX 1.1.5-b20170303        * Origin: Outpost BBS * Limestone, TN, USA (1:18/200)    |
