X-Mailer: VM 6.43 under 20.4 "Emerald" XEmacs Lucid Message-ID: <14222.37994.172281.121385@saphire> Sender: owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I wish to use an old 486 with 8MB for a NAT/firewall box. What release level would be most suitable? Earlier releases build smaller kernels, but I really want a fairly recent level of NAT/firewall support -- I'd like to just chunk down my existing 4.0 current NAT/firewall configuration, if possible. Is there an obvious sweet spot that someone can recommend? To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
