Dear IPfire Document Team, I really want to use ipfire as proxy for our organization but I cannot configure to authenticate with Window Active Directory 2008. I have tried to do it for a few weeks ago, so I would like to get recommendation and advices from ipfire team. I am hopeful document team can help me on this.

Questions about IPFire installation documentation for the non-specialist
by com＠riseup.net 05 Jul '13

05 Jul '13

To the IPFire Documentation Team: Hello, I have just been communicating with Erik Kapfer, who tells me that I might be useful to your work with some polishing of the English. I am from San Francisco, although I live in Paris at the moment. While I do some work as a web developer, the hardware end is pretty much Greek to me, and in that respect I would like to suggest some additional information might be useful much closer to the front of where newcomers get started reading your documentation, even before the installation guide. I did download the software. "Don't be afraid!" it said, but no information after that came up on the screen. I must say, it reminded me of the politician's "Trust me!" So then I searched in a search engine for an installation guide. I must tell you that yesterday I attempted to install IPFire and gave up before I had begun. The hardware requirements were a complete puzzle. I could not tell whether it was possible to run the firewall on a single computer with only a wireless connection to the Internet. In fact, I wrote in to the forum, asking about the 2 network cards, but no one was able to reply. It would be useful to have information like this right up front for potential users. If there is someone available to answer the technical questions, I might work on your installation guide, http://wiki.ipfire.org/en/hardware/start from the point of view of someone who knows little about the inside of their computer. For instance: Hardware Because of its modular concept, IPFire is very flexible in its hardware demands. On this page, we will present possible setups, without making any claim to be complete: Intel D945GCLF2 - A miniITX-Board with one Intel-Atom-Processor. fit-PC2 - An embedded system with Intel-Atom-Z-Processor. [WHAT DOES THIS MEAN? WHAT ARE THESE TWO ITEMS? DO I HAVE TO BUY THEM? IF THEY POTENTIALLY ARE ALREADY IN MY COMPUTER, HOW DO I FIND OUT?] Demands Processors IPFire needs at least a i586 CPU (from Intel Pentium upwards). [OK, HOW DO I FIND THIS OUT? I LOOKED UP THE CPU IN MY MACHINE, AND THEN SEARCHED ON THE INTERNET FOR SOME SORT OF BENCHMARKING. I FOUND IT LISTED ON A PRIVATE SITE, PASSMARK SOFTWARE. THERE ARE VARIOUS MEASURES OFFERED. I COULD NOT FIND i586 ANYWHERE, THOUGH, AND THERE WERE MANY INTEL PEMTIUMS LISTED. ALREADY, IF I HADN'T ALREADY BEEN IN TOUCH WITH THE PROJECT, I WOULD HAVE BEEN LONG GONE. IN FACT, I NEVER WOULD HAVE TAKEN THE TIME TO TRY TO LOOK IT UP.] ... Network IPFire should have at least 2 network-cards available (see Network topology)... [SO HERE IS WHERE I GAVE UP. DOES THIS MEAN THAT I CANNOT USE IPFire ON ONE COMPUTER ONLY? AND FOR SOMEONE WHO HAS TWO OR MORE COMPUTERS, ARE NETWORK CARDS THE SAME AS CONNECTED COMPUTERS? IF NOT, HOW DOES SOMEONE KNOW HOW TO FIND OUT HOW MANY THERE ARE?] ... [I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT IS BEING REFERRED TO ON THE REST OF THE PAGE.] ------------ So my question for the documentation team is this: is the project interested in having non-specialists use IPFire, or is it really geared for system administrators? If the latter, there's no point in changing what you have, since it seems that there is already a growing number of users. If the former, maybe a different stream of documentation could be added. Cordially, Beryl Magilavy (Ms)

OpenVPN transfer net changes in Core Update 70
by Michael Tremer 04 Jul '13

04 Jul '13

Hello, in Core Update 70, we will ship some changes that affect OpenVPN N2N connections. In order to have a smooth transition to what users might need to take care of, I created a small technical guide about that. Could you guys please review it and make improvements if any are needed. After that it would be great if someone has the time to create the translations. http://wiki.ipfire.org/en/updates/start http://wiki.ipfire.org/en/updates/openvpn-transfer-net-block Thanks in advance! -Michael

Wiki tutorial for P2P, Web lock and Child safty lock
by Thomas Berthel 25 Jun '13

25 Jun '13

He, i thought about doing that wiki topic "Web-Security and control over the childs". I have considered the following points in one Wiki-Tobic with the name "child safety lock (en) / Kindersicherung (de)" * P2P Block with examples * Time control for devices * Firewallsettings für child security * Proxy and HTTP-URL Filtersettings with examples I think that it is very interesting for a lot of parents to find a topic with important security settings for access the children. What do you think, or do you mean that would be unnecessary? BG, Thomas
