    I am new to the Linux world and had a few questions regarding configuring a Linux box to act as a firewall, as well as, connecting to my local xDSL service.

     

    As mentioned I would like the Linux box to connect via PPPoE to my ISP (xDSL) and provide firewalling to the rest on my internal segment.

     

    I would like to know what Linux distro would be the best for this application, as well, what NIC's are recommended since I will need two.

     

    The hardware I have allocated for this project;

     

    AMD K6-2 - 400

    512 MB RAM

    Adaptec 2940 SCSI Card

    40 GB SCSI drive

    Acer Motherboard

     

    Any help would be greatly apperciated.
