I was thinking about this also. How to hookup my home net. But with all
the work that I am doing to create a viable firewall at work, why not at
home also? TIS and Socks will both work on a dual-homed host. Bet I can
even get them to work on NT if I apply myself.
So there will be a BIG market for small application firewalls real soon...
