Linux-Tip News

We are proud to present Linux-Tip Europe. This page is designed to provide the Linux users community (not only in Europe) with news and articles that are of interest to them. It works by allowing members of the community to submit news and articles relating to Linux hardware and software. This same community can then decide what tips should be promoted based on what they consider to be the most important or interesting to the community by voting stories up and down. Stories that receive enough votes are promoted to the Linux-Tip Europe homepage. Bookmark and Share

The Linux based Astaro firewall manages inbound and outbound communications traffic. It is installed on any standard PC hardware and placed at the point where the Internet enters your facility, controlling network traffic for security purposes. A user-friendly point-and-click interface allows Administrators to block or allow access, for each protocol, to each internal network, server, service, and user group. The firewall inspects both networking information (packet headers) and application information (payloads) to detect and block suspicious traffic.
Read more about the key features like Proxy, Anti Virus, Intrusion Protection, Spam Filter here. With the added HTTP content filter option “Spyware Protection” ASL is able to:

  • Detect and block spyware before it enters the organization and infects computers
  • Intercept and block spyware communication from already infected computers to the internet 
  • Optionally block all suspicious and unknown sites to even protect against spyware originating from websites, which have not been categorized yet
  • Additionally this option enhances protection against phishing attacks by blocking communication to these fraudulent links 


Private home users can register via MyAstaro request a free home use license. Any optional subscriptions can be obtained at a reduced price for the home-use version in the online shop.
