Got a TSL 3.0 box as firewall (8 interfaces) today and have no isseus
with it. A firewall box doesn't have many packages installed thus it
should be stable no matter what.

I guess the official answer is 2.2 seeing that it's still the stable
release, but I'd recommend 3.0. The benefits of the 2.6 kernel far
outweighs the danger, if you ask me.

On a side note:
I'm a bit disappointed that TSL dropped the -firewall kernel a while
back. I'd really like to see it back (preemtion and more stuff from
patch-o-matic). I'm in need of shaping ingress traffic too, which
requires some kernel patches to be done right.
