But... but... but... but... Smoothwall! Fancy supporting the man who wanted to kill ALUG. I guess he's left that project now, but I'd still use IPcop in prefernce until they disown him.
I understand shorewall (http://www.shorewall.net)is pretty good (there's a Gentoo package, unlike ipcop) but I've yet to play with it. Any one in ALUG used it yet? So far a handmade iptables script has done what we need, but we're managing more and more machines, meaning more and more similar but different configs, and may need to go the "package" route in the future.
