[sllug-members]: Linux NAT

[Kurt Mahan]

Hmm..  I haven't run it in a VM -- just on hardware..  I use m0n0wall
for my main firewall, nat, dhcp server, DMZ, etc. 

If you have a question about how it is behaving be sure to ask on their
mailing list -- they are pretty good at answering everything (and
quickly).  Lots of folks on the list use m0n0wall in professional
installations.  And they are aggressive about fixing bugs that show up.
