I have been using the SuSE firewall script for about 6 months and am
very happy with it.  I have just upgraded to 6.4 and all is working
fine.  I have a cable connection and need some security and SuSE was the
ticket for me.  I have ip_masq working to the other 3 computers (1
windoz and two SuSE).  The only problem is using things like webcams due
to the protocol and port stuff.  Hope this helps some.
