Re: pfsense and untangle

I'll second pfSense. I'm running it on a Dell PowerEdge 1850 with dual Xeon 3.2 processors and 2GB of RAM. Sure it makes a bit more noise in my bedroom than a Linksys but heck, it's worth it. I run Snort (intrusion detection) with a lot of rules in the highest performing memory mode without choking it.

I like the easy Certificate generator which makes setting up OpenVPN a lot easier. The traffic shaping works a lot better than anything else I've used, especially if you use the wizard to set up the queues. Another benefit is using it as a DNSSEC resolver with Unbound.
