If you're good with iptables, iproute,etc any stable distro like Debian or CentOS will do.

Thanks bro, im not expert in iptables, still studding. But ClearOS give a GUI for config. And we could do any changes via text terminal too.

with ClearOS my firewall listen all traffic but outgoing traffic has filtered (only allowed for permuted ports only). Is this secure? or I have ally rules on In/Out traffics?
:eek::eek:

Please Advice me

    you're allowing all incoming traffic but filtering only OUTGOING traffic ??
    Ideally, Filter both INCOMING and OUTGOING. If not, atleast filter the INCOMING traffic.

    Ipcop is similar to clearOS check it out as well : http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/ipcop/wiki

    Installing Sun Java on Ubuntu


    • Note: these instructions give detailed steps for installing Sun Java following a recent installation of Ubuntu. Before you install any new operating systems please make sure you have a backup of data that you want to save. Note: Java and Ubuntu developers may find Installing Sun Java Development Tools on Ubuntu useful
    • As of this writing the latest development version of Ubuntu is the Ubuntu 6.06 LTS Release Candidate (Dapper).
    • Burn a Desktop (Live) CD of Ubuntu from http://releases.ubuntu.com/6.06/. For most computers this will likely be the PC (Intel x86) desktop CD image.
    • Restart your computer with the Ubuntu Live CD. After the user interface is ready, double click on the "Install" icon to install Ubuntu to your hard disk. Please consult the Ubuntu documentation for details on installation. During the installation you will create a normal user account to log in to your system (hint: remember yourusername and password as this information will be required to administer the system).
    • After Ubuntu has been installed on your computer can install new software from the "Applications | Add/Remove Programs" menu option:

    • Click "Show unsupported applications" and "Show commercial applications" and then Enter "Sun Java" in the Search: box in the Add/Remove Applicationsprogram:

    • Click on "Sun Java 5.0 Runtime" to install Sun Java. You will need to enable the multiverse component as shown here (what are components?):

      syn17.png
    • Then click OK to install Sun Java. During the installation you will be prompted to accept the DLJ (Sun's EULA for Java):
      syn19.png
    • To integrate the Sun Java Plug-in with web browsers like Firefox open a terminal window (Applications | Accessories | Terminal) and type the following:
      myname@laptop:~$ sudo apt-get install sun-java5-plugin
      Password:
      Reading package lists... Done
      Building dependency tree... Done
      The following NEW packages will be installed:
      sun-java5-plugin
      0 upgraded, 1 newly installed, 0 to remove and 30 not upgraded.
      Need to get 0B/1334B of archives.
      After unpacking 65.5kB of additional disk space will be used.
      Selecting previously deselected package sun-java5-plugin.
      (Reading database ... 73800 files and directories currently installed.)
      Unpacking sun-java5-plugin (from .../sun-java5-plugin_1.5.0-06-1_i386.deb) ...
      Setting up sun-java5-plugin (1.5.0-06-1) ...

      myname@laptop:~$
    • After the installation is complete you can (re-)start the Firefox browser and enter the URL "about:plugins" to verify that the Java Plug-in has been installed
      ( Note: for the JRE JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-sun/jre ):

    The how to above is for Java JDK 5 but its the same process for Sun Java 6 as well.
