Two separate questions.
1. I have been asked to set up system in a physician's office - a small start up solo practice, with tight resources. The medical practice software has already been selected, and will run on MS Windows. Givent hat users will be accessing the site remotely through teh internet, and the importance of HIPAA and private health information, I want to set up a firewall appliance. I've looked at Sonicwall and Trustix, butwould like more options if available. I'd like opinions on appropriate devices for an appliance budget of around $1000, and on recommendations you might have on application firewalls that might be appropriate for the small office. Of course, I'm looking at running Linux. Additionally, any opinions on what other "stuff" I might want to be looking for would be a great help.
2. Separately, I'm trying to get "dig,(BIND 9.3.2 " the alternative to nslookup, to run on an XP box. Followed the excellent instructions at http://pigtail.net/LRP/dig/, but keep getting an error message that a nameserver cannot be found. The corresponding nslookup command works just fine. Does the resolv.conf file have a special format for dig?
Thanks
Carl
