Debian Edu/Skolelinux
Debian Edu/Skolelinux is the Debian-edu's Debian Pure Blend distribution. It is aiming to provide an out-of-the-box localised environment tailored for schools and universities. The out-of-the-box environment comes with 75 applications aimed at schools, as well as 17 network services pre-configured for a school environment. The simple, three-question installation requires minimal technical knowledge. Skolelinux is Debian, which means, among other things, that there are no license costs or worries, and that upgrade and maintenance of the software can be done over the Internet with the power of Debian's apt-get. The core goals of Skolelinux are localisation and ease of system administration.

| About m0n0wall
|
| m0n0wall is a project aimed at creating a complete, embedded firewall software package that, when used together with an embedded PC, provides all the important features of commercial firewall boxes (including ease of use) at a fraction of the price (free software). m0n0wall is based on a bare-bones version of FreeBSD, along with a web server (thttpd), PHP and a few other utilities. The entire system configuration is stored in one single XML text file to keep things transparent. m0n0wall is probably the first UNIX system that has its boot-time configuration done with PHP, rather than the usual shell scripts, and that has the entire system configuration stored in XML format.

Manuel Kasper has released a second beta build of m0n0wall 1.33, a tiny FreeBSD-based operating system for firewalls: "m0n0wall 1.33b2 released. This beta version introduces a new image type for generic PCs with a forced serial console, corrects driver issues with some Realtek network cards and fixes two small bugs in DHCP 6 handling and the captive portal. Changelog: a new image type 'generic-pc-serial' has been added, the only difference to generic-pc is that it always uses the serial console; reintroduced original FreeBSD if_re driver (to fix missing support for 8139C+) and added Realtek patched driver under a new name (if_rg) with lower priority to ensure that the Realtek patched driver is only used if the stock FreeBSD if_re/if_rl can't handle the device; disallow webGUI passwords with colons (:) as mini_httpd has trouble handling them; fix broken captive portal sessions...."

BSD Release: m0n0wall 1.3 |
|
Manuel Kasper has announced the release of m0n0wall 1.3, a minimalist firewall distribution based on FreeBSD: "After almost three years in beta, I have decided that m0n0wall 1.3 is now good enough for production.
