I too would like a unix based system to handle my setup.

just use TCP/UDP Port Filtering, and a VPN ... no virus .. no trojan .. :wink:

I have the virus stuff under control. I just want to get rid of this windows box on my network. If geovision or one of the other vendors would support a unix based system, I would be the first to jump on that.

I posted in that slashdot story (user: ThomaMelas) and the amount of raw stupidity I saw in those posts simply amazes me.

So you want a Unix based system:

Do you want it for Solaris, HP-UX, BSD, Linux, Irix, SCO Unix, or one of Novell's verisons?
In saying Unix do you actully mean Linux? If so would you like it for Mandrake, Redhat, Debian, Gentroo, or the flavor of the month?

My preference would be freebsd. I see many vendors in other areas creating with linux in mind which if fine. I have found pretty much anything pushed to a linux environment can be setup on Freebsd etc. Which unix based system doesn't really matter, just one anyone any flavor.
