IPCop Firewall

I have used ipcop since it was recommended to me by my uncle who was a unix systems/network administrator. I have loved it from the very beginning. That was over a decade ago! It works 100 percent ALL of the time. At one point I had an uptime on an original P4 with 512MB ram, at nearly six years! Unfortunately, the power supply went bad. It is rock a rock solid distro. I have implemented it in so many customer's homes it is insane. As long as you have a UPS, this thing never has problems. Set it and forget it. On the negative side, with the proxy server enabled, whether transparent or with authentication will prevent you from getting internet speed's over a certain limit. Note: I am using version 1.4 with all updates. It seems that when I initially got a 30x5 cable internet connection, I could only get about 11 or 12mb. I found that the proxy when disabled, lifted the limit. I do not know if this is a common issue or a known limitation, but it didn't bother me. I'm now, right now, going to try out version 2x on a test machine. I am very excited! To sum up, it is a rock solid, quite secure, easy to configure firewall with addons and all of the granularity to perfectly support in particular the SOHO sector. Highly recommended.

J'adore IPCOP Je l'utilise depuis le début. La version 1.9 est très bien en général. Par contre elle comporte quelques Bug ???

Simple, efficient and GREEN !!

Amazing, ease tool.

Using v1 for a number of years without any issues.

good job
