Um, the firewall/router's running RH 9 - specifically, since I want the 2.4
kernel, as it's running on old hardware, and I don't *want* what they did for
2.6, with scheduling improvements specific to multiple CPU's/cores, and which I
read a couple of years ago disimproved performance on single CPU systems. All
my other systems are significantly newer.
