Stephan,

I've had great success with Untangle (I utilize the Community version
(http://www.untangle.com/)).
It's based on Debian, but it sounds like it can handle everything
you're looking for.
I have Untangle deployed on 3 sites ranging from 8-100+ boxen, and it
has handled all requests flawlessly for over a year now.

While I can not comment on the quality of Endian, or ClearOS, Untangle
is great for what I need.
The community is friendly and active, as well. I'd suggest a look.

(And no, I'm not affiliated with them in any way, but it's really
eased the management of my clients and lusers)
