Not only is it an easy but powerful firewall system to use, but the author's documentation is excellent. The quickstart guides and FAQ sections ought to cover every question you have. If they don't, there is a very helpful mailing list. However, if you need to use that, make sure you've read the documentation, FAQs, and mostly importantly, the instructions on how to post your support questions. The author can get rather short with people who don't do that before posting a question that has already been answered many times before.

After months of denial, I finally admit that my Powerbook G4 500 Mhz with broken screen (it works for about 30 mins. at under 15 deg Celsius) is just a piece of junk (even the cd drive is dead). Now i'd like to set the thing up with a minimal YDL installation and use it as a firewall between my PC and new PB and my DSL line. Maybe i'll also use it as a (very basic, unsecure) fileserver. Any tips or HOWTOs on how to best do this? What's the best solution to only having 1 LAN port on the PB?
