If you are prepared to do some work yourself in configuring a kernel and
the ipchains/iptables rules, you should be able to build a pretty reasonable
firewall from a Redhat 7.1 CD, with a couple of ethernet cards and a cheap
motherboard setup.   The cost of doing it this way will be far less than
buying a ready-to-run system, I believe !
