=ZeroShell=
==Introduction==
ZeroShell is a Linux distribution developed by Fulvio Ricciardi (1), a system administrator at the Italian National Institute of Nuclear Physics’ (INFN) Lecce Section (2). Its purpose is to provide advanced LAN services, e.g. for an office building. Some of these services are:
*'''Firewall:''' Enables forwarding of wanted traffic and blocking of unwanted traffic.
*'''DHCP and DNS server:''' Lets clients in the network automatically receive an IP address (DHCP) and communicate using identifiers instead of IP addresses (DNS).
... and many more. The use of some of these features will be discussed in more detail in the Basic Operation section.

ZeroShell is not based on another Linux distribution; it is built from the Linux source code using Linux from scratch (3). However, most of the services ZeroShell provides, e.g. OpenVPN (4) and httpd (Apache) (5), are developed by open source development groups, and then included in this multi-purpose network management tool (2).

===Intended Purpose===
One of the most important parts of providing advanced network services is having the right hardware. Most systems will therefore use dedicated embedded devices. For the group of network administrators that would use such devices, the good news is that ZeroShell can be installed on these devices as well as on a computer / server (6). Hence, ZeroShell enables the use of far more advanced services than some of the original operating systems on these devices.

ZeroShell also opens up another possibility: instead of acquiring embedded devices to provide the necessary services, ZeroShell can be installed on a server. Even better, it can be installed on a virtual computer running in parallel with other servers. For example, it can provide network services to a web server running on the same hardware.

===Hardware Requirements===
The hardware required to run ZeroShell is minimal (6):

COMP 3000 Distribution Sign-up 2011

2011-11-15T00:10:33Z

Bvardal:

Sign up for the distribution you want to report on here. Note that others are also editing page so verify that the page hasn't been mangled after you make your changes. To help with this, try to only edit the section for the appropriate alphabet range (e.g., Ubuntu should go under T-V).

Note that no more than two people may sign up for each distribution. If two people sign up for a distribution, you two '''should be working together''' on a joint report. If you are not working together, then note that the person who picked the distribution gets a 10% bonus: that person, after all, did the work to find the distribution.

Please sign up with your wiki name (which, generally, should be the same as your connect username). See [http://www.distrowatch.com Distrowatch] to see what distributions are out there. Also, search for types of operating system distributions.

Please '''do not''' sign up for a major distribution. This includes but is not limited to the major distributions listed by Distrowatch. Pick out something specialized and obscure! If in doubt, please email the instructors and TAs.

If you are submitting your report on the wiki, please add a link to it as shown in the example. Please title the page using the name of your distribution, not your name.
