Protect Your Network With an Open-Source Firewall
,----[ Quote ]
| SmoothWall Express 3.0 is an open source GNU/Linux firewall which is security-
| hardened and freely downloadable. By design, it has minimal hardware requirements
| and a small footprint. It should work with nearly any Pentium class computer with
| at least 128MB of RAM and a hard disk with a capacity of 2GB or greater. It'll
| likely work with that PC you have sitting in your closet that you've been too lazy
| to recycle. You'll want to have at least two network cards installed for basic use,
| and three or more if you want to have a DMZ or incorporate a wireless network. Keep
| in mind though, that your firewall's reliability is limited by the hardware on
| which it's installed.

Linux Release: Enter Express 3.0! [Fanfare!]
,----[ Quote ]
| SmoothWall Express is a free GPL firewall distribution based on a
| security-hardened subset of the GNU/Linux operating system (2.6 Kernel).
| Express allows users to convert a spare computer into a dedicated âhardwareâ
| or network firewall that sits at the gateway, providing an extra layer of
| protection and saving valuable system resources. Development, testing and
| maintenance is done on an active basis by a core team of programmers with
| indispensable assistance from an extensive user community.
