    Hi all,

    What are the thoughts on some of the "free" firewalls available. Such
    firewalls as Darren Reeds IPF, or the OpenBSD PF? and the Linux offerings?

    Performance?
    Security?
    Fancy tricks?

    Just interested as to the thoughts out in the community.

    Cheers,
    Sean
