I didn't see that no, so thanks for the link.
I'm downloading the ISO now, but I'm a little put of to see that it's
going to be a commercial offering. I'm keen to stick to free software
especially considering the most important components are going to be
free.
(I do appreciate the effort it must take to do the integration and
bundling, not to mention testing. But I know that if I start
suggesting a paid distribution I'll get bounced back to being told
to use WatchGaurd Fireboxes or similar ..)
I've just been playing with PGI the Progency installer and I'm
thinking that might be enough to do the installs...
