I couldn't get ipcop to work. Smoothwall has much better and up to date documentation. IMHO

IPCop has much better functionality for free. The GPL version of Smoothwall is intentionally limited because they want to sell the full version.

I have IPCop 1.3 installed right now, and I am having some issues with it. I am going to give Smoothwall Express 2.0 a try. From the documentation, Smoothwall actually looks to have more features, although I have not seen the IPCop 1.4 beta. I will let you know what I find out!
