Features:
1. Built from PicoBSD/FreeBSD 4.4
2. ipfw based firewall with natd.
3. users may login via telnet, via the local keyboard and monitor, or via 
   a serial port.

Login via telnet? Ouch. Bad to put that first. Also no mention of ssh. I
hope that's at least telnet over ssl.

It's also missing ssh and telnet clients :(. Hard to have all the features
on a single floppy.

It does have traceroute and ping ( the bishops of routing ).

ciao,
