linux firewall with 2 wireless nics
hi, I just received an old p2 laptop that I would like to use it as a linux firewall. The problem with it is that the ethernet port is broken. I do have 2 wireless nics (1pcmia and 1usb) and was wondering if I could put both of them on the laptop and still use it as a linux firewall.
Is this possible?? if it is what are some security distros that one would recommend? Smoothwall??
As an alternate the laptop already has win 2000 on it and I have tested both wireless nics on it and they work. Is there some windows security software that I could run that would act as a firewall for my network?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
