[asterisk-users] is there a way

[Steve Totaro]

I will look into that when I get my Acer Aspire One running FC8, it came
with windows XP and I got the 1gig ram, 120gig HD.

I am following threads on howto but nobody has a definitive guide yet, that
allows the embedded webcam and the NIC to work properly.

Maybe (probably) my USB Alpha AWUS036H with upgradable antenna will probably
be much better than the stock onboard NIC.  Plus it supports packet
injections which is nice.

Thanks,
Steve Totaro

My only wish is that Linux had a facility like XP to bridge NICs without
running all sorts of commands for brctl.  Just a GUI like XP.  Last time I
setup a bridge in Linux, I had to change many kernel options and rebuild the
entire kernel to get bridging working properly.  With XP, you just select
the NICS, right click and select add to bridge.

For linux, I find that running firestarter, ICS/Firewall is fine, my end
game is to get all of my traffic to go over an OpenVPN tunnel at my colo
which is the default gateway over OpenVPN.  Windows seems to have the
easiest method of getting this done.

Thanks,
Steve Totaro
