IPCop 2.0.3, a new update of the small, Linux-based firewall distribution, has been released: "IPCop 2.0.3 is released. Version 2.0.3 can be installed using the installation images or as an update from version 2.0.2. You need to reboot to use the new kernel after upgrading to 2.0.3. In addition to many updates to software used in IPCop, version 2.0.3 adds TLS support for sendEmail, wget and out-of-kernel e1000e and igb network drivers. Traffic accounting with detail level High is disabled, use Low instead. Noteworthy: the GUI uses 8443 instead of 445; SSH uses 8022 instead of 222; access to IPCop and to the Internet from internal networks (aka Green, Blue, Orange) is very much different, spend some time with the various options you will find under 'Firewall Settings' and the online administration manual; several translations are complete, other languages are work in progress; backups from 1.4 series can not be used; add-ons made for the 1.4 series will not work. Here is the brief release announcement. Download (MD5): ipcop-2.0.3-install-cd.i486.iso (60.3MB).

NEW • Astaro Security Linux vs. IPCop Firewall |
Rate this project
|
If you are looking for a Linux-based firewall, this comparative review of Astaro Security Linux and IPCop Firewall by Shadow Lair might be of help: "The only downside to the Astaro product not mentioned in detail above is that it is not completely free. Home users can get a free license but it does not activate all the functionality of the product. IPCop is a completely free product with constant open source development and upgrades. I personally find IPCop easier to install and configure. Although there is slightly less reporting than I would like it is far from inadequate. I have to admit the high availability features of Astaro sound great but most home users don't have the hardware to support this type of setup. Large businesses would, in my opinion be better off using Astaro as its integration with Webtrends will greatly ease administration and monitoring. Home users and small businesses would be far better off with IPCop. The overall ratings of these products are very close but I have to give IPCop 5 stars and Astaro an overall 4 stars."

South West LUG reviews IPCop: "I found IPCop ideal for the job. It is quick, the interface is uncomplicated and it will always be GPL. Technically, there is little difference between the features of Smoothwall and IPCop. IPCop's best advantage is the lack of advertising and the lack of 'you will buy the commercial product'. If you're trying to decide between IPCop and Smoothwall, choose IPCop. There are additional features not included in Smoothwall and the software does appear to be more up-to-date.

Security Focus reviews IPCop Firewall: "IPCop is a complete firewall installation, taking control of the machine and replacing any other operating system that is installed. Therefore, it is not similar to packages like ipchains or any of the GUI firewall administration tools. It is not an additional security service you would run on your machine; rather, it is a complete operating system and firewall administration kit in a box that the user would dedicate a single machine to house and run as an Internet gateway."
