Darrell,
I have done similar, I am using a p166 96MB ram with 2 * 1000 MB of HD for a firewall-router. It is a fairly full install with KDE and konqueror, because it also had to earn its keep while I was doing a web project for college.

Thanks for everyones' advice. I will most likely try this machine for a firewall-route in the next few weeks. Have to take care of pressing matters first. :-P
Thanks, Darrell Cormier
I found it easier to set up OpenBSD than SuSE 8.2 on my home mail/web-server. OpenBSD also has a nice packetfilter that I found easier to configure than SuSE firewall. For my workstation I use SusE 8.2. By downloading a floppyimage you can do a ftp-install. More info on www.openbsd.org. OpenBSD has a handy emacs-style editor called mg that is part of the base install, in case you don't enjoy vi :-) Cheers, Sigfred. OpenBSD has a small nice diskett install I put OpenBSD on my "new" mailserver
