So my trusty internet server died after a good number of years. It was running IPCop during its life which seemed to do the job just fine.

Just wondering if there's any other similar software available that come recommended before I go about setting up a new server.

I recently moved back to smoothwall from ipcop, I found that the new smoothwall has some awesome features compared to ipcop, like realtime bandwidth monitoring and a very good QOS interface, but the IDS service is fuckin rooted, I think I don't have enough memory to start it.

Also the proxy services on smoothwall kicks some ass. the rules you can have for internal, outgoing & incoming are really nice, I had a mod on IPCOP that did that would help prevent applications from calling home.
