Tom,
My Experience with e-Smith is limited to what I had on my personal network.
Although it is probably secure enough, I am still weary of a firewall box I
setup also being used as a file server (that could hold sensitive data),
which means that I cannot tell you of any experiences in that sense.  I
really liked e-Smith because it is in my mind the only distro that I have
come across that has done so well with the goal of being a small/medium size
business server.  It's ease of administration means that anyone with a
general idea of the network layout and user needs can manage the box.  Good
luck but Im sure you won't need it with e-Smith.

Any one know anything about this e-Smith gateway/firewall software I picked
up at the last West side meeting?  I'm ready to put in a dedicated
gateway/firewall box and move everything else to a private intranet and was
wondering if this is decent or would something else be better.
