Network and environmental stats

Known Issues

• PC Weasel does not work with this motherboard. The PC Weasel doesn't like some Intel chipsets.
• synproxy in /etc/pf.conf breaks connectivity with some operating systems and applications
• ahimsa-fw1 failed all the time. The hard drive was swapped into 3 different systems and kept locking, with no output, every few days. So apparently it was a bad hard drive... ahimsa-fw2 is it's replacement and has been stable.
• CDROM may be jacking things up on reboot

Future

• Second firewall for hot standby using CARP
• authpf for authenticating administrators
• Cleaner /etc/pf.conf
• Better stats collection
• NIDS of some sort
