    AWSTATS and BIND9 ?

    no these some tools which we are using.

    Jnettop, Iptables, Ebox, Opsview, Cacti, Nagios, OpenDNS etc

    I can't tell everything, We can't give all our secrets in public. I guess you know about these things. :yes: :yes:

    Most of these are not secrets. Nagios is used widely for system monitoring and Iptables is pretty much a kernel module and is available with almost all linux distros and it is the byword for firewalls and IP routing.
    BIND9 is the industry standard for DNS. Not using that is somewhat surprising. Especially with the new bug that was found on the DNS protocol that allows for DNS cache poisoning. Bind9 has this fixed already.

    DSL is still using the 2.4 kernels so it doesnt support most new hardware that the 2.6 kernel supports. For older PCs ,this is a good distro to use. Especially if you want to turn the old box to a dedicated server with less resources.

    That it is! :yes:
    I used it once to turn an old IBM MMX machine in to a gateway and proxy server for an office. The machine is still working fine! :yes:
