dunno if this was posted, im too lazy to read it all.

the netgear fa311 nic is only supported in recent linux kernels. it is most definately NOT supported in red hat 6.2 and less, and mandrake 7.x.

just get anything for a firewall. i have some crazy bastille-firewall on teh router and zonealarm for windows. i do have a problem with zonealarm. my problem is that the new version displays some banner at boot, and you cant disable it.

people have recommended for me to install tripwire, but i never did it. im lazy, so shoot me. but do turn off services you dont need.

and if it is windows, dont use that dumb verizon dialer they have. you can easly use the dialup networking to bypass it, it does the same thing. pm me or email me for the workaround.
