Experimenting with firewalls, tried the default IPTables, via a

What else do you guys play with?  Whats the popular firewall 
alternatives?


Well, I use a Cisco PIX 515 ( thanks again Volker! ), but that's 
probably not what you're after.

Smoothwall's out there, but I hear that the support is a bit bolshie (: 
IMHO you'll find it hard to beat IPCop.
