As far as Ive seen, I really like the SideWinder. It uses TypeEnforcement and
runs on BSD making it more stable. The TypeEnforcement gives it that extra umph
for keeping much more stable thanother firewalls that run with out it. There
are some flexibilityissues that I have ran into with it, but that is using
propriatarysoftware. Overall, I really like it more than any other firewall
I'veworked with.
