Hello, all !
  
I'm to set up the Internet firewall for my company and (at present
time) I'm limited with 486 PC and Linux or FreeBSD/NetBSD for this
purpose. The connection will be slow (64kbps at most) and the load
won't be very heavy also. So, does anybody here have something to
say about Linux vs. FreeBSD in this respect ?
