Re: Astaro Security Gateway

[Robert Maxwell <rmaxwell () UMD EDU>]

I'm found of the product, I installed one for a friend who has a businesss
with pretty strong IA needs.  It's pretty easy to manage, very flexible,
and robust, though she hasn't taxed it in any way.  It also functions as a
VPN concentrator, and that has come in handy.

They have a VM and a free ISO for running on beige boxes for the
not-for-profit crowd, should be good for a look-see.
