Re: pf on a p90

["Scott Ream" <sream@9370.org>]

I ran 2.9 and ipf on a 486dx33 with 16megs of ram acting as a
natrouter/firewall for 4 machine sharing a cable modem.  IIRC speeds were in
excess of 1mbps.  I was also running samba and apache.  Only things that
slowed it down were when I was running webmin (cgi's).

Subject: pf on a p90


I found a p90 W/90megs of ram and was wondering if this would be enough
oomph for a pf firewall that would be responsible for connecting my home
lan to the internet via a T1 or the new 3-5meg dsl lines that are said
to be coming soon? The only other spare computer I have Is a 150mhz and
I was wanting to use it for a nfs server that is why I was looking into
the p90 to fill this need. One other thing that I need the pf firewall
to do is nat inbound (originating from the internet) ipsec connections
to my vpn server. I tried ipf before for this but was unsuccessful
nating more that one ipsec connection at a time. As for the load the pf
fw would see... I would say no more than 10 concurrent connections.

I would also appreciate if one posted the links to some of the archives
such as MR. Hollands as I would like to have more research capabilities
on openbsd.

Thanks in advance
