There are lots of single-floppy or otherwise light Linux distros that do firewalling/NATting/etc. Most of them don't have an easy way to update the installed software other than getting a new image and they typically don't have things like portsentry and extenisve logging. I'm thinking that it shouldn't be too difficult to make an install profile for people who want a little more than what the single-sloppy versions can provide and want to avoid commercial addons like NetMax. I don't want to go to the effort of starting from scratch tho if someone out there is already doing it for stock Debian.
