George,

When you are ready for a firewall, I have a follow-on to Seawall running
here. The new firewall is called "Seafall" (so that I don't have to walk a
tightrope to keep Seawall Incorporated off of my back) and is redesigned
from the ground up to take advantage of the capabilities of netfilter and
to avoid many of the problems that I've run into with the old 2.2
firewall.

The first version supports a DMZ, Proxy ARP and static NAT with complete
control over the traffic between the outside world, the DMZ and the local
network.

I'm still testing and trying to put together some documentation but I
should have something that's installable and usable by the end of this
week.

Since the only connection tracking module currently part of the standard
distribution is FTP, masquerading some applications doesn't work. I also
don't yet have tunnel support or support for VPN masquerading (John Hardin
is working on the latter but his time to devote is limited).
