Hi Firewall-Wizards, Does anyone have experience with Linux based Firewall/Router distributions ?I am looking for a cost-effective firewall capable of handling three security domains (Internal Network, the Internet, and a DMZ) for a SOHO.
A hardened linux box running NetFilter/IPtables with three network cards looks like a good fit. However, I would also welcome suggestions regarding low-budget hardware firewalls meeting these requirements.
I believe that the now defunct Linux Router Project (http://www.linuxrouter.org/) has left some successors:

Thanks! Best Regards, Skander Ben Mansour --- http://www.benmansour.net/ _______________________________________________ firewall-wizards mailing list firewall-wizards () honor icsalabs com http://honor.icsalabs.com/mailman/listinfo/firewall-wizards
