This has basically been done, ish ... Check out the efficient networks 5861 adsl / shdsl router ... these basically run open bsd .. There is a lot on info out there on the net, and they are excellent adsl routers with the built in functionality of a firewall with full ipsec capability ... I would use them more but I just like mono too much :) Eusty in the uk was usually a good place to start .. cheers -----Original Message----- From: Jeb Campbell [mailto:jebc at c4solutions dot net] Sent: Tuesday, 21 June 2005 12:26 AM To: m0n0wall at lists dot m0n0 dot ch Subject: [m0n0wall] Documentation Thank You (How to build m0n0wall from scratch) Just wanted to say a big "Thank You" to whoever wrote and is maintaining the docs for building m0n0wall from scratch. And to whoever (I assume Manuel) split out and posted all the patches. Because of this, I have resurrected my project to get 3 things in m0n0wall: 1. Ipsec compression. 2. Filtering on ipsec links. 3. Better queuing (really just borrowing with ALTQ). The move to Freebsd 5 would have helped these, but I don't know if that will be possible for all us wrap/small system users. So taking that into account, I've decided to try and port m0n0wall to OpenBSD. I currently have combined some openbsd scripts from the net to build an embedded system. flashboot is used to build a /bsd kernel with embedded root filesystem, and flashdist is used to install that image to a bootable compact flash image. Status: I have successfully booted from cf using the stock flashboot build -- generic-pc size is under 6M, but that includes tons of things like ftp, ssh, etc. There is plenty of room to take things out and put m0n0wall in. Todo: 1. Cleanup/combine scripts into easy build system (and release this if anyone is interested). 2. Use the docs to make script that builds all m0n0wall needed binaries (php, mini_httpd, etc). 3. Remove binaries that aren't needed. 4. Hack m0n0wall scripts for openbsd. Biggest thing will be firewall ipf->pf and ipsec daemon conf files. If anyone is interested, drop me a line off list. If there is any interest, I'll setup a svn repo for all this. -- Jeb Campbell jebc at c4solutions dot net --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: m0n0wall dash unsubscribe at lists dot m0n0 dot ch For additional commands, e-mail: m0n0wall dash help at lists dot m0n0 dot ch Dore Achievement Centres (Pty) Ltd - Hotline: 1300 55 77 11 www.dorecentres.com.au This e-mail message may contain confidential or privileged information and is intended solely for the individual to whom it is addressed.
