From ClearOS to Sophos UTM Home Edition

bstulic
Currently I use ClearOS 5.2 which is a bit old, as my home gateway.
Since version 6 seems unfinished, and I accidentally found out
that Sophos has similar free product, I'm curious if someone
replaced ClearOS with Sophos before, what are your experiences?

What are advantages/disadvantages over ClearOS?

    Ian, outside of facilitating the use of SSO, the advantage of using the proxy explicitly is that it handles all of the services listed in 'Allowed target services'.  One thing that that would allow you to do is control access to tors on ports other than 80; otherwise, you have to choose between blocking or allowing everything.

    Cheers - Bob

    Hi Bob,
    let me see if I understand what you are saying.
    Transparent proxy does not use the exceptions, allowed services, bypass proxy for certain sites?
    Where as Standard proxy obeys all those features?
    If this is correct this could explain my issue with WOW.
