 Where we're diverting from the standard ReCoBS approach is that we're using a single firewall with a third ethernet port for the DMZ, and we're running both the firewall and the X2Go terminal server as virtual machines on a stripped down Debian Linux with KVM. Also, we're providing a web proxy server with a default deny policy, so that you can whitelist "safe" domains like microsoft and antivirus updates, or online banking portals, and access those using your locally installed browser or online banking software (which makes more sense from a security standpoint, if you think about it). Where we're diverting from the standard ReCoBS approach is that we're using a single firewall with a third ethernet port for the DMZ, and we're running both the firewall and the X2Go terminal server as virtual machines on a stripped down Debian Linux with KVM.

-While the system isn't limited to a particular hardware configuration (we've shipped regular midi-tower cases as well as 19", 1HU rack-mount servers), our standard model is a fanless (i.e. entirely passively cooled), very compact case with enough CPU and RAM for up to concurrent users. A picture, showing the box on top of a stack of copy paper for easy size comparison, is available here: [[http://www.baur-itcs.de/20-servermodelle/10-lexcomputechtwister/]]+While the system isn't limited to a particular hardware configuration (we've shipped regular midi-tower cases as well as 19", 1HU rack-mount servers), our standard model is a fanless (i.e. entirely passively cooled), very compact case (taking up less space than a stack of copy paper) with enough CPU and RAM for up to 10 concurrent users.
  
 This allows us to offer an affordable solution even for small offices like a general practicioner's office. This allows us to offer an affordable solution even for small offices like a general practicioner's office.
