 As well, Smoothwall GPL runs on as little as a 486; it sets up in minutes, and 
will work with 1 NIC + an external modem to 3 NIC's - ISP, trusted LAN, DMZ. 
You admin it via local terminal, http or https, or SSH into it. Nice headless 
item, tucked away and running erhm, 'smoothly'. Has traffic graphs built in; 
SNORT, Web Proxy, DHCP, and it's easy enough to install squidGuard into it. 
Piece of cake, works a treat ;)
