Second that. If I could sort ISDN (me being a 
not-a-bloody-chance-of-getting-ADSL person) under OpenBSD, I would be 
using that for my gateway.

That said, I found creating the gateway under Red Hat using iptables 
relatively easy, and very satisfying (in a geeky sort of way). It only 
takes a handful of rules to seal yourself off from the 'net and still 
having working outbound connection.

Cheers,
