+1 for pfSense. pf is built on top of m0n0wall, so if you don't need the advanced features pf offers, you can get by on a more slim installation of m0n0wall.
I've been using both for a few years now, my m0n0wall box is rock solid - I have had to boot one of my pf boxes once or twice (over the last two or three years), but that may be the hardware it's on and not necessarily pf itself. As mentioned above you can run either on very light hardware - two of mine run on CF drives as well (the other is a VM). You can also scour eBay for Intel dual nic cards out of old servers on the cheap (unless you need GbE). -- 86atc250r ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 86atc250r's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=15476 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=64547 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
