Upgraded my freesco box from version 0.32 to 0.33. A bug in the adduser script screwed up some settings with the server. Since the new version came up, I thought what heck. freesco is a floppy based router distro. So installation took less than a minute. Putting it on a hdd and it'll be quite formidable. Small and quick, and made my old Acer Pentium 60 useful again. The upgrade process took less than 10 minutes.
Evrything in the distro is designed for speed and at the same time small in size. I'm running a dnsmasq firewall/router, 2 web servers (1 for internal admin stuffs, and the other is a public webserver), ftp server (internal only for now), print server (serves my 2 linux and windoze boxes) and a few monitoring tools all on my old pentium with 100MB harddisk and 48 MB ram.
Yes, I made all those work on an old box in less than 10 minutes thanks to freesco, :)
