what do you suggest i put on there? i have slackware 8.1 which i use on my main pc, i havn't really tried to harden the system and i know if i am going to install it as a router/firewall it will need some extreme tightening!
Slack's not THAT open by default ... just follow a few
of the hints on the thread in the security forum and
you'll be fine ... basically, only install what's really
required :) and make sure you set that up right ;)

I haven't tried BSD yet, but would consider using
any of free, open or netBSD :)
