Slackware

A very, very,small slackware router
I managed to get a router working at home on an old asus tx97 with 64 Mb ram, no monitor or keyboard. I just boot it and it links me up with my wireless, and routes and firewalls for me. Using a SLAX Frodo Edition v 5.1.8, and a few scripts added as modules. The trouble is it uses 60 Mb ram (only 4 free) and take... 1 Feb 2008 15:20

Ping: "Tom N" (Alan Connor) - Sasquatch tips
