I have been a user/supporter of the ClarkConnect distro for some time, and 
find it makes a 
newbie's firewall experience a breeze when I introduce it to people 
looking for a good firewall solution. It is a solid, hardened Redhat 7.3 
(at this point) with a web based administrator. Very nice. :-)

It has a fairly easy install program that walks you through the install and rough set up of all the stuff.  It also has a HTTP interface for managing fine tuning the box, so there is no need to keep a monitor hooked up to the server box.  You can even manage it from a Windows computer.
