Some people (like me) have issues with the way Smoothwall is run, and I
believe it's about to go commercial with a GPL element still. Better to
search the archives or ask in comp.security.firewalls and
comp.os.linux.security for instance before plumping for one. There are
many alternative free firewalls that may suit your needs better.
