I've been thinking about security a bit. Most of my home security depends on my ADSL router and especially on the NAT it provides. Now I could try to harden every machine on my network, which I admit would be best practice, but (a) I'm lazy and (b) I've got little control over some of the devices on the network. So I've been wondering about putting another dedicated machine in between my router and my network to make it harder to penetrate. My router also provides my WAN, FWIW. Is this at all sane? Would openSUSE make a good basis for the machine? What software would I need to run on it? What hardware power would I need?
