There is no proxy needed. http://fedoranews.org/ghenry/gateway/ This is a short instruction set on how to let Linux play the gateway to the public internet gateway for a private address space LAN. It allows the clients inside the LAN to directly communicate with the outer space. Of course you can restrict what the clients can see and do by adjusting the iptables firewalling rules. That is certainly what you need to setup for your router/gateway and the LAN clients. > Császár Péter On the other hand, if you really need a caching IMAP/POP3 proxy there is up-imapproxy within Fedora Extras. A different powerful IMAP/POP3 proxy is perdition.
