Have a look at smoothwall GPL, right out of the box it blocks
anything above :1024, and has 2 zones. 3 nics, install in old PC, you're ready
to rumble. I wouldn't give 'em any privvies, but then you can remote admin the
thing over SSL from your desk, in the event they had some oddity needing higher
ports. 20 meg download, you can have it running in about 30 minutes.
If the free GPL version won't do it, they offer a commercial version,
although 0 experience with it here -
cheers,
