Rick,
Thanks for the tip about SmoothWall.  This is a very nice package.  I will
definitely recommend this to people, especially when they release a 2.4
kernel version.

Julio,
I see that SmoothWall still uses the 2.2.x kernel.  Your Redhat 7.1 already
has a good setup with a stable and heavily patched 2.4.2 kernel, and with
the simple addition of the Mon Motha script you'll have the full capability
of Netfilter stateful firewalling that the 2.2.x kernels cannot provide.
