linux app for firewall/routing/packet shaping

Hey folks,

I'm looking for an app like smoothwall or m0n0wall but isn't a livecd or run entirely off of a floppy disk.

I'm not sure which path you were looking at, but smoothwall has been working pretty well for me. It's stored on a 10gb hdd, and runs without any hiccups. It doesn't have QoS installed natively, but you can install complete addons made by others for this feature. I would install the Community ISO, then update all the fixes.

Smoothwall has a forum dedicated to custom made addons for their community project under their "Homebrew Discussion (+Something else)".

Smoothwall was able to be completely installed and up and running within about 30 mins or so. I would take a look at the homebrew subforum to see if there are addons that would interest you.

IPcop is the man. No contest in terms of functionality and laziness it affords you, IMO.
