Now I run my entire network through it and just simply fergit it's there except for frequent log checks.
I used an old 486, 32MB, and a bootable floppy running Eigerstein LRP (Linux Router Project - http://leaf.sourceforge.net/) for two years, until the machine died. That forced my upgrade, I have a machine that is too overpowerd now for a firewall (PII 200) but I can now run the Bootable CD version of Dachstein LRP, still no HD so the machine is quite.
