I just use a distro ~ 21mb called www.smoothwall.org not a bad balance
between IDS, and firewall and traffic graphs and all.

--would be nice if someone told me how to get a syslog without
recompiling to output to a MySQL on another box?

I would go with the latter.

"or does it increase the potential for someone who is 
incompetent to think they can do it properly?"

A lot of the Windows boxes I see hacked are home users 
running Server or Advanced server in default states.

This seems a bit off-topic, but I thought I'd share my two 
cents in a rhetorical question.

Does ease of use decrease the potential for misconfiguration, 
or does it increase the potential for someone who is 
incompetent to think they can do it properly?

Thanks,
-James
