Deaf ears I'm afraid Mr. Morgan.
Either FreeBSD which inhabits the group you've spammed here, or Linux
will do all this - and much much more - for Free!
I've used FreeBSD on a 486SX-25 to do just what you describe here.
FreeBSD also supports a much wider range of internet services:
o FTP server
o HTTP server
o HTTP Proxy Server
o Mailing list server
And Much Much more...
As a Firewall, FreeBSD provides far superior capabilities, including
o Socks
o TIS Firewall Toolkit
o Kernel Firewall bits
o Network Address Translation
o You can also run DEC's AltaVista Tunnel for secure remote
access that really works.
As a router, FreeBSD will beat almost anything except purpose
built router hardware, much of which actually runs BSD anyway.
To read more about FreeBSD, see the FreeBSD web page:
http://www.freebsd.com
Incidemtally, my bet is that your product is probably already just
*BSD with some spiffy set-up screens. If so, THATS GREAT! We all
really want to hear about it. But we won't pay you money for it.
