Yes, Kelvin.

But have you actually tried doing it?

I was immensely impressed with their offering -- until the CD I made
from their iso image refused to play.  (I also made up a bound copy of
their printed documentation, to help me -- but to no avail.)

So, if anyone gets it working -- please let me know.  I put a lot of
effort into building a 3-card firewall, and the bloody thing wouldn't
work because of their dumb CD iso.

Extremely miffed, of Glastonbury
