Any one of these will make a decent fire wall system. Check the net,
there are plenty of sites and distributions for this type of work.
Not if he's to run NetBSD (which was a requirement). Judging by the

on a TokenRing network. And the day when NetBSD sees support for NCA
dual-CPU 486 MCA systems should indeed be very far off.
