Coyote Site Content Lost

In a tragedy of errors, the content for the Coyote Linux site has been lost.

In a sequence of events that left me scratching my head and asking "how-in-the-holy-hell-did-I-manage-this-one", I managed to destroy the contents of the Coyote Linux web site and the tape that I backed it up to.

I am working on restoring the HTML content from an older backup of the site, but there is still a ton of work to be done to get things back to normal.  The contents of the Forums, FTP site, download areas, and my development environment were unaffected and the Coyote product itself is fine, I just need to get a web site back up.

My Appologies,
Josh

Borland Kylix 2

I don't normally make annoucements like this one, but I figured it was note worthy. My copy of Borland Kylix 2 arrived today and I must say that I am VERY happy with it. So far it has been rock stable on my Red Hat 7.2/KDE/Linux-2.4.13 desktop machine. I have already started working on several applications for Embedded Coyote Linux remote management. A considerable deal of effort is being put into sticking with the cross-platform components and code libraries so that Embedded Coyote Linux will have a complete administration suite that works in Linux as well as on Windows.

Compact Flash Documentation

As many of you have expressed interest in the work being done to install and run Embedded Coyote Linux from compact flash devices, I have added a link to the documentation page that details the creation of an Embedded Coyote Linux test system.

Coyote Linux site changes

Several changes are being made to the Coyote Linux web site to merge some of the various areas of the site. This is being done to (hopefully) make information easier to find as additional products and services are made available in the near future. Most notably, the Embedded Coyote Linux project and documentation areas are being updated due to the fact that it is now the primary development project.

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.
