We just decided to start doing this here in New England. 486's running
FreeBSD as gateways/ppp machines with mail and web servers set up.

The one thing that seems to be needed (from what we've found clients want)
is packet filtering in the kernel, which can be provided by something called
"screend". I've got the kernel patches ported to FreeBSD 2.0.5 and am trying
to get the author to let it be part of the BSD distribution as a package.
