Stumbled across the name of this distro from a thread over at Wilders...I don't recall seeing it before. Looks like an updated ClarkConnect...interesting enough to maybe check it out when I get a weekend.

I "think" the free version allows updates for up to 18 months.
 
Which brings to mind, we should add a sub-thread to Orinthicals Router Recommendation thread...with the sub thread being *nix distros, a list of all of them with a brief description of features and a link to their site.
 
Trying to hard IMO,

can't decide on what it wants to be, fails to explain well and the documentation is rather useless.

Click to expand...

I did a thread for that a while back (~2 years), Somebody might want to add to it/update it and have it posted in the router rec. thread

Interesting. I really liked ClarkConnect back in the day, before I found Untangle and Astaro. Might give this one a shot again.
 
Used to be a huge fan of Clarkconnect as well... time to fire up a new VM and see what this one can do.


EDIT:
"ClearCenter acquired both Point Clark Networks and its ClarkConnect Linux distribution in 2009. This combined the original vision of remote services delivery by Peter Baldwin and Ben Chambers with Michael Proper's vision around highly scalable IT delivery and his experience starting and growing numerous IT companies."

Well... that would be why it looks so similar...
