Another solution is LRP and tomsrtbt. Look in sunsite incoming for
tomsrtbt.

LINUX ROUTER PROJECT

Embedding the bird for the sake of all humanity [IMAGE] [IMAGE]

Linux Router Project (LRP) n. A networking centric mini-distribution
of Linux. LRP is small enough to fit on a single 1.44MB floppy disk, and
makes building and maitaining routers, terminal servers, and typically
embedded networking systems next to trivial.

So you're kidding, right? Linux as a router....on a floppy!?!

Subject: [LRP] 2.9.1 Released

Still busy working but I've got to make a cut off some place.
So 2.9.1 is out. Expect 2.9.2 in about a week with many more little
improvments.

sshd still doesn't work. : <
Please someone try to fix that if you can....

You will notice I'm putting out a dev snapshot now. That will help for
any of you interested in really getting your fingers in it.
