Well i have set up a few firewalls with kernel 2.4, and i wouldn�t like to
do it with 2.2 any more. stateful packet inspection is really great and
makes live so easy...

Well i would say that you do not need to wait, as there is a Patch for 2.4
out there that includes the openwall patch . it is named grsecurity and
contains a few more security patches (like protecting from os
fingerprinting...). But unfortunatly the main site www.getrewted.net seems
to be down. You can find some information on this on freshmeat...
