It does not support the rtl8150 chipset. That is what the I have in the way of USB ethernet dongles.

Which is another reason to go with a Centos based solution when you need to put something up as you go.

Which is how I have shorewall/shoreline working . . . .

OOPS...  I was thinking you were saying Smoothwall!!!!!

There I go again.

Yes, it IS Shorewall that I am using with the Webmin front end (though more and more now I am doing quick edits to add rules via VI).

Summary : Shoreline Firewall is an iptables-based firewall for Linux systems
Description :
The Shoreline Firewall, more commonly known as "Shorewall", is a Netfilter (iptables) based firewall that can be used on a dedicated firewall system, a multi-function gateway/router/server or on a standalone GNU/Linux system.

Shorewall offers two alternative firewall compilers, shorewall-perl and
shorewall-shell. The shorewall-perl compiler is suggested for new installed systems and shorewall-shell is provided for backwards compability and smooth legacy system upgrades because shorewall perl is not fully compatible with
all legacy configurations.
