Have a look on IPCop. I had very good results as a firewall.

        Hi guys,
        
        I'm a newbie when it come to setting up a server with
        enterprise
        services. I have been using Linux for several years now and
        have a
        MythTV box running. I have four PCs running and there's no
        Windows in
        this house. :-D
        
        I was playing with the idea of setting up a multi purpose
        server (file
        sharing, print server, proxy, DNS, ...). The terms
        multi-purpose and
        security do not go hand in hand, but that is a trade off I
        have to take
        because I can not afford to run a full rack.
        
        The main question is: Can I use the one machine as a firewall,
        using
        multiple network cards on different subnets, and at the same
        time run
        Squid, SMTP, DNS, DHCPD, CUPS, etc.. on it?
        What is the take of the experts on a situation like this? Keep
        in mind
        this is a home situation with a limited budget.
        
        Thanks.
        
        Bert
