Yes, smoothwall uses iptables now (up until recently it used ipchains). 

I use Shorewall, and it's fantastic, and yes, I believe it can handle multiple external IPs now.  It's tight, easy to configure, and works flawlessly!  I heartily recommend it.  But it all depends on your situation....

I assume Smoothwall just uses a set of IPCHAINS or IPTABLES rules?

Subject: [cfaussie] [OT] Open/Free Firewall

I'm looking for an Open source/Free firewall, I am currently running Smoothwall, and have been very happy with it, it's running on Linux, it's free, but it only works with one External IP.
So anyone know of a good package that allows you to work with more than one IP?
 
I believe IPCop is one, but not sure.
