I've been happy with ipcop, though I don't need any fancy features. I'd 
like RARP, which I think is not included, but it is not serious.

I'd like one that runs from from a CD and a floppy....no hard disk at 
all. Maybe two floppies, so one can have the config and be write 
protected, the other hold dynamic IP addresses assigned, etc.
