smoothwall?


I was thinking about downloading smoothwall. Is this a good firewall?
Can it run on fedora core 2?

Thanks for any info you can provide me...

Take a closer look at the documentation.
Smoothwall runs itself on a spare PC. Your other computers connect to the internet through the Smoothwall firewall PC.
Works great.

I've been running it for a while now. I'm not qualified to say how secure it is, but people I trust call it "bulletproof". However, it's a joy to work with.
