I would love to see an ALIX version of this.  While I am still
having fun learning about the ALIX by doing my own setup, I
expect I will be setting up more than one ALIX board with
members of the Portland Linux Unix Group, and being able to
clone setups will help.

I can also imagine one of our sysadmin friends building some
"loaner firewalls" with the Alix boards to facilitate contract
sysadmin.  That is, a contractor can loan a client an Alix box,
which drives a VPN back to the contractor's site, monitors 
traffic, etc.  The sysadmin tasks are done over that link, then
the box is returned.   The ALIX is cheap enough that a lot of
boxes could be deployed this way, making a good living for 
some of us.

Thanks in advance, Tyler and Johan.
