Re: Help Adding Another Website
After some more thought (and talking with another Unix/Linux guy I know),
I'm thinking now that I'll just put the new BSD machine out there on it's
own. Unfortunately, the PIX 506 doesn't support more than 2 interfaces, and
the boss wants seperate IP addresses for both websites. So I think I'll end
up with something like this:
Cable Modem -> Switch -> Cisco PIX and existing network
-> New BSD server
I think this should be ok, and I plan on locking the new BSD machine down as
much as possible and keeping it patched religiously (FreeBSD 5.1, Apache 2,
and Qmail are all I plan on running on it, besides SSH for admin, etc. No
ftp or telnet).
