I would recommend Shorewall by far, very stable, easy to use, you can do whatever your need, plus like one user said before, documentation is excellent, plus mailing list, i wouldn`t doube it, maybe it`s quite scarry the first time you look at the config files, but you can master it in relative short time. Hope it helps. Javier. PS: Sorry for sending the answer to your mail i forgot to change the address.
