Yer not the only one. this thing is my firewall/gateway/router, also DNS and DHCP, and is quite reasonably hardened. yes, ipchains is starting to get stinky, but it works. it started life as RHL 6.0, but got upgraded, and now has an bastard mix of stuff on it.

Using this as a firewall too. Started out as a RHL 6.2 box with ipchains, upgraded it to CentOS 4 when the hd gave up - upgraded the firewall script for iptables -, then to CentOS 5 when yet another hd died. This box has been running for over 10 years, I estimate for 8 hours a day on average, survived a flash fire in the power supply after it gathered a bit too much dust but no other issues :)
Had to increase the amount of RAM when installing CentOS 4, but it's mostly unused:
$ free total used free shared buffers cached Mem: 255468 157688 97780 0 39360 70304 -/+ buffers/cache: 48024 207444 Swap: 987956 0 987956
