That sounds like a great meeting.
Let the new users know what a firewall is, what it can,
& can't do, & a brief how-to set up a Linux firewall.
This would include examples using the 2.4 kernel, which
everyone will soon be using, theoretically, I think.
Does the Linux Router Project use 2.4 yet?
Since Bruce did the Feb. meeting, I won't put him on the spot.

Who wants to step up to the plate?
