Hi!
as Giacomo already mailed, you have the possibility to use Adrian's
packages from people.debian.org/~bunk/debian. But I had several
problems with them using isdn and proxy, etc.
I have woody installed on my router/firewall/proxy/fax-server. It's
working pretty fine. I have uptimes of over 50 days, only interruped
by installing new kernels. I would say woody is quite stable enough
for a router, if you can handle some basic problems, which still
occour in woody time by time.
