I have a Zytel Q100 modem from Qwest and my box that I would use for smoothie is a older IBM 6862 Pentium II, with approx > 640mb ram and a 20gb drive. > Your hardware is more than adequate for Smoothwall.

Smoothwall is pretty solid, and works well. Do you have any specific questions about Smoothwall? > Thanks! > > - > Dan > > -- > Dan Smith > Email: dan.smith225 at gmail.com > > > >
