Hi guys, 

I am writing this from behind a 486 based firewall based on the
Linux Router Project. Lots of us in the KPLUG, the Kernel-Panic 
Linux Users Group in San Diego use these 486 based firewalls to
support internal home networks for use with cable modems and DSL 
connections. See http://lrp.steinkuehler.net/
