SLAMPP 1.1

SLAMPP is a generic Linux distribution that can boot directly from a CD-ROM, or optionally can be installed on a local hard drive. It is based on SLAX and Slackware Linux, and is designed to be used as an "instant home server". Similar to other Linux LiveCD distributions, SLAMPP gives a user new to Linux the chance to experiment with a non-Windows operating system, without the risk of changing or re-configuring the user's existing system. SLAMPP comes with preconfigured tools and applications that allow a personal computer to function as a server.

SLAMPP features:

• Turns a personal computer into an instant home server which provides support for common protocols, including: HTTP/HTTPS, FTP, POP, IMAP, SMTP, SSH, DHCP, Squid, etc.
• Modularity. The ability to add additional tools and applications easily in the form of modules. Each new module will be integrated seamlessly during the booting process. Aside from all the modules provided in the Live CD, custom modules can be created. The tools to do this can be found on the Live CD.
• Webmasters and web developers can use SLAMPP to show their work to others. To support this feature special scripts have been provided in the LiveCD. They only need to burn all files onto the CD and SLAMPP will take care of the rest.
• Uses linux kernel 2.6 which provides better support for hardware.
• All setting and configuration changes made during use can be stored on the harddisk and restored for next session.
• Can be installed onto the harddisk to access the server permanently.
• Equipped with firewall, antivirus and content scanner.
• Uses slapt-get, Autopackage and swaret for package management tools and Xfce as desktop environment.
