FW: ISA server

["Alex Pimperton" <Alex () MAGDALENSTREET CO UK>]

Try using www.astaro.org

Its primarily a firewall, but it has a proxy (squid), good logging and reporting options, and an easy web interface.

You can either buy an appliance or the software, and use it on a server you already own.

It can also be set up for high availability, and the licence fee is miniscule compared to ISA and the likes.
