I'm rebuilding a machine to function as a gateway/router to Verizon DSL.
May I ask why you don't just use a made-for-the-purpose-distro like Smoothwall to do this? I takes (almost) all of the pain out of configuring stuff, and is quite
secure due
to not having as much "junk" pre-installed as CentOS 6?
Please note: I'm not criticizing, just curious about the argument behind using a regular OS to do firewall-stuff.
