Coyote Linux 2.0 pre-release 1 is available for download

Coyote Linux v2.00 pre-release 1 is available from the FTP server (ftp.coyotelinux.com/pub/coyote/devel/). This release replaces the 1.4x tree and contains the much awaited move to the 2.4.x kernels and iptables firewalling support. This release should be mostly functional but still needs a fair deal of work.

The 1.4x downloads have been removed from the FTP server as development of this tree has been discontinued. The Windows Wizard is not available for this build yet, but will be released once the Linux version is closer to completion.

Information

Coyote Linux is a security-centric mini-distribution of Linux designed specifically to function as a network edge firewall and VPN server. Developed by Vortech Consulting, LLC, Coyote is tailored for users who prioritize safety and efficiency in their home networks while preferring a simplistic and minimal solution.

Originally launched in 1999 during an era when consumer internet routers were non-existent, Coyote Linux emerged from the need for effective internet sharing across home and small business networks.
