hi ya richard...
- if its hw that your looking for...
- checkpoint/pix is expensive as you saw
- lots of ipchains/iptables with linux or bsd...
- if the traffic is low... a 486 -based system w/ 3 NICs will work too...
- you can always use an old celeron/P3-xxx if you need more umphf
- you'd have to dig around to do your own fw config..
- 3-NIC fw ipchains examples
http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/IPCHAINS-HOWTO-7.html#ss7.1
- pre-installed fw ... middle of the page just above the red thingie
http://www.linux-sec.net/Firewalls/
- firewdraw, seawall, shorewall, leaf, ipcop, smoothwall, etc..
- firewall config tools... tons of um ...
several dozen fw config tools listed just below the red thingie
- list of commercially available fw too .... humm...
have fun
