Am I missing something here? surely WSUS does this for you? I can only think of is that WSUS downloads and push's the updates out where by the WUA devices only download an update when needed ...

Yes, windows server can do the update caching for windows updates, however the Update Accelrator for IPCop can cache from:

*adobe
*microsoft
*apple
*symantec
*avast
*trend micro
*linux
*and even "other"

So with WSUS you can ONLY cache microsoft updates. Sad

oh, I am also looking for something like this!

update-accelerator can be very useful in some situations, and EFW is great!

niterider91, may you should email the Dev and see if he could make an install for EFW....
you wouldn't think that this would be too hard for a good programmer...isn't EFW built on ipcop....

Hi,

I had e-mailed the author of the windows update accelerator for I.P Cop.

This is what he had to say in response to what i sent him


Hi,

> I am a user of endian firewal which is supposed to be a derivative of
> Smoothwall and I.p cop, I was wondering if you could port your update
> accelerator to the endian firewall 2.4 community version. If you can't
> can you provide me with some pointer's on what I can do to try and port
> it myself. Things like what i need to know to successfully port it over
> to Endian.
 

Reply from him

The Update Accelerator was designed for IPCop only. It might be easier to write it again from scratch than porting it to Endian or SmoothWall.

Regards,
Marco Sondermann

I also emailed the Dev with the same response.

but did not post it up here, be good if an Endian guru could come to our assistance...

This is one of the things that stopped me until recently to migrate to Endian or other firewalls.
Now that I did the switch it's a real pain not to have it.
We got a lot of use for this because we get computers from our customer to fix and having cached windows updates is really speedier and easier for our link.
WSUS server isn't an alternative as computers have to be in the domain to sync from it because settings are sent by domain policy AFAIK.

I still have IPCop in production and find the advproxy package extremely useful.

I have just installed Endian in the test lab.

I'm curious if putting the web proxy to 5gig and max file size to 150meg will work similar?

Anyway, will watch the logs and play around with this FW to see how it compares.....
