Last one of the new threads for today.

I'm looking at doing a failover, load balancing router. I've looked at the Symantec 200R VPN/Firewall appliance. Seems nice. Comes with VPN clients and 2 wan ports blah blah blah.

But, I figured it shouldn't be too hard to do it on a PC running a linux distro. Anyone have a clue which distro might be friendly towards this idea and/or a good place to ask that question.

I'm moderately linux savy but its not something I've put too much energy into lately. I figure its a good excuse to tone up and get back into it. And another good excuse to run another linux server.

So, help would be extremely appreciated. Take me to school guys.
