Has anyone successfully installed this? I want to know what it's strengths and weaknesses are. Since I cannot successfully configure Redhat 7.1 as a router I thought this might be the way to go.
Questions, will I be able to configure it to run servers behind it that have internal IP addresses?
Can I speed up internet surfing with squid somehow?
Anything else you guys might be able to volunteer would be great. thanks!

www.coyotelinux.com (http://www.coyotelinux.com) is sorta based on lrp i think , i use coyote for my router/gateway at the moment
you can forward ports to internal ip's on your LAN

if you want a firewall/gateway distro that has a proxy server, check out www.smoothwall.org (http://www.smoothwall.org) , when i move the coyote box is getting retired and a smoothwall box will replace it for my firewall/router pc
