Hello, I have an old firewall (3 ether ports) on a amd K6 166MHz machine. It ran OpenBSD just fine, but, it's long overdue for a upgrade. I was considering Gentoo, but, with only 128 meg of ram, this old, tired machine might not be up to it.
Is there a solution using Gentoo? Maybe a binary installation, specific for firewalls? I could use Debian(sarge) but I'd rather use gentoo, or a gentoo derivative. I'm not sure I'm ready to build everything on another machine and transfer it over, but I could use distcc during installation and to support maintenance compililations? An easy path to a (gentoo)firewall from an installation CD would be keen. A firewall is all the machine has to do. Ideas and thoughts? James -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
