[Gllug] Firewalls

I need a firewall - ideally to run on an old box - to protect me from 
the scourges of the Internet. Trouble is I have a fully routed 
connection and most of the one floppy LEAF distributions only have 
documentation for NAT based setups or you need to assign all the IP 
addresses to the firewall.

I can't run like this as I need to access 2 different VPNs - one of 
which won't work through NAT.

Any suggestions - ideally I'd like to be able to run this from a 
fanless mini-itx based machine with solid state storage - so small is a 
factor - interfaces are not an issue, I'll happily edit text files.
