I love m0n0wall a lot, but some things would [seem] be easy to implement
into it, and they might be nice features:
#1. Version display: How are we supposed to remember in a few
(hours/days/months/years)
what version of m0n0wall we have. The update instructions seem different
for every pb**. A little version at the top, bottom, or on the info page
would be nice.
#2. A "fetchable" status script. Something that would display everything
in the LAN/WAN info, status, uptime, version (or not?)
but would be safe from SSL/Login. I could just visit it, and it would
display, or i could code a php script to fetch it.
This thing could have its own config page, for the file name, allowed
hosts.... actually, its possible to login through AuthConfig through a
sort of script interface. So I guess a status page would be nice.
#3. Someone just brought this up: A console menu. Pretty much, it would
function like a keypad lock on a cellular phone. Good Idea.
#4. SSH possibilities. That would be nice :D I could easily code my own
scripts to do blah and stop bitching on the mailing list :P
#5 ^^ Look at #4. Thats a good suggestion. It deserves two numbers.
Thanks A lot,
Mohammad Ali
P.S. These are merely suggestions, I could be completely wrong in
suggesting them, they might be computationally impossible to integrate
into m0n0wall, but somewhere, I remember seeing "Submit your suggestions
to the mailing list." So I followed :D. |
