Until Plex86 can support hardware partitioning by OS, this would be a very,
very bad idea - the Host and the Firewall OS would be sharing the same
ethernet access, and the "Firewall" would be no more secure than the Host.
On the other hand, if an ethernet controller could be dedicated to the guest
OS, this would make a lovely setup for a "honeypot" system... Also,
conceivably at some point down the road, Plex86 technology could be used to
build a really secure firewall - with the Host OS monitoring the Guest OS to
ensure that it hadn't been captureded by an intruder. Not for a while,
though.
