Finally I got Archlinux to work, problem was in the TAP adapter naming. That is
solved now. Updated the Archlinux packages, installed squid and webmin. All work
perfect now. Can use Colinux as proxy without noticable performance reduction!
I've given up installing DSL for now, I may try that later, my experience is
that DSL is extremely fast and small.
Thanks again
