If you really want a bulletproof router/firewall that'll make all the little
script kiddies cry and wail, and gnash their teeth in anger, pickup an old
Mac II, or SE/30 off of E-bay, and drop OpenBSD on it, and just kill
EVERYTHING, and then start punching holes, to date AFAIK, there hasn't been
a remote hole, or successful hack attempt on the default OpenBSD install in
a very very long time.
