Security Basics: Re: Open Source Router with NAT

[ED Q <gone_thermal () yahoo com>]

I use SmoothWall easy use and FREE

Main- http://smoothwall.org/
Forum- http://community.smoothwall.org/forum/

You will have to download and burn the ISO file to CD
for installation.
Has Plug n Play capability 
Will install what is required
GUI interface
Nat Supported 
Reporting and Monitoring 
IDS/snort 
And many other features

Same as some other suggestions: Need a spare computer
with 2 nic's at minimum .

hope this helps,
Ed
