I run a pentuim 90 as a firewall,dhcp-server,dyn-dns updater and a small webserver, connected with adsl using ipcop. It's extremly simple to setup, hopefully good security, lots of features. (Ok i put the webserver there myself) http://www.ipcop.org I run 1.3.0 with all nine patches, but 1.4 is on its way out. (patching is a matter of upload the patch via a browser interface) good mailinglists, and well just easy to maintain. /Bj�rn
