He didn't say he just wants it to be a firewall. Or at least he didn't in
the bit you quoted and I'm too lazy to go look up the rest of his quote
*zzzz*.

Well, he said he was running a small web server and named on the box
already - perhaps he simply wants to do more with the webserver? In any
case, I suspect he may just not find Freesco suitable for doing more
high-powered stuff (while I'm sure it is great at being a simple
router/firewall).
