[plug] Firewall Distros

[Timothy White]

What's wrong with running a stock standard distro with 'server'
install? More freedom, no nasty under the floor magic that you can't
see so if it breaks your in trouble...
My preference is Debian of course. But even Ubuntu lets you do a
server install. And seeing as a firewall is really only iptables, and
sometimes squid... Why waste a box on that unless it's getting pounded
or you doing something really special...
