I've seen several statements to the effect of xBSD networking being
better than Linux networking.  Can someone clue me into some
specifics.  I've heard IP firewalling mentioned...

I currently run Linux, but I'm planning on setting up a LAN gateway in
the near future and would like to consider my options.

Thanks.
