Hi,
i ask you if you have some real expereince to using smoothwall in a
medium/big company.
I want to use this products for my customers but i am not sure regarding the
affidability.
I suppose that it works fine and for home user o small netwark it can be the
best solution, but i don't know if it is a good idea to use in a company
whit oround 100 employes.
And also using the the basic product (without mods o custom plugin) seems
not well regular updated. The last fix9 was released a lot of months ago.
In the basic configuration i don't see the nothing to update IDS Snort or
Squid.

Thanks in advance for your experience and point of view!

Regards

Is IBM big enough?

This may be of interest - _Shorewall_ on an IBM Mainframe:

Leaf is an iptables set-up configured with Tom Eastep's excellent
Shorewall - and importantly there's first-class support on the Bering
Leaf mailing list.
