I have an old p1 and had the not very original idea of putting a couple of network adapters into it and using it as a router for the minimal network I have at home. It should run on Linux, naturally and perhaps boot from cd.
Any ideas what distro what be good? I know there are some specifically put together for this kind of thing, but could use some tips.
Good points would be if it was configurable from another computer and didn't need a monitor itself. There will be both Windows XP and Linux computers on the network, possible a playstation 2 as well. And a printer.
And setting it all up wouldn't require me to have to think too much :-) Ok, that was a joke, but an easy way of configuring it would be great.
