Yes, I was using RH before that and I'm lazy. My firewall is running a much-hacked version of 7.0 - prob hacked enough it shouldn't be called _any_ distro :). My server may change from it's current RH9 to another distro as FC1 won't install properly on it - @%@%# network probs.

Then you aren't lazy. You haven't found the right thing to install on your firewall yet.
Try a firewall distro. Check for example Distrowatch or the LWN list. You'll find enough of them to fit about any need.

You shouldn't need to hack a distro half as much.

very happy with the Bering branch of LEAF. Even uses a current kernel, and shorewall is very good at turning common sense config commands into iptables commands.
