Hans,

Thanks for the reply... sorry I forgot to put a subject in the 
e-mail....  These aren't the OS's I'm looking for... I recall a few 
years ago hearing about a linux installation and kernel that was 
specifically designed to be a firewall...  I have searched google and 
havn't come up with the name of it...

I went ahead and resubmitted my original e-mail with a subject this 
time...

Best Regards,
Lynn P. Tilby

I thought distrowatch categorized distros, but I don't see anything for 
it

on the web site.


ciao,
