I am having terrible speed issues using ASL v5.012 on a Celeron 733 with 256MB ram. All of the problems seem to come down to the fact that I am using IPCop v1.3 to NAT my internet connection through to ASL. I am using IPCop since I am still using a dial-up modem, and ADSL is at least three months away for me. If I connect a machine directly to the IPCop box then internet access seems to function at appropriate speeds. As soon as I place the ASL server in the path web browsing (and ftp etc.) slow to an absolute crawl, often with timeouts. I thought it may be an issue with my configuration since I am new to Astaro, however my ASL server funtions correctly (and at high speed) when I connect it directly to a DSL connection, changing only the external IP address and DNS server address. I am not using NAT on ASL, I have configured the various proxy servers instead.
I realise that some of the difference will come from the fact that a DSL connection is substantially faster than a dial-up modem, however pages that load through IPCop using dial-up in around 10 seconds can take closer to 7 minutes once ASL is used, that is if they even load.
One oddity that I cannot explain is that the intrusion detection mentions that there are occurences of the same source/destination. I'm not sure where to look for more information regarding that.
Thanks in advance for any assistance or suggestions.
Regards,
Mark.
