Neal Murphy has announced the availability of the third release candidate for Smoothwall Express 3.1, an Internet firewall/router distribution designed to run on commodity hardware and to provide an easy-to-use administration interface:

" The Smoothwall community is pleased to announce the third release candidate for our long-awaited Smoothwall Express 3.1 firewall. RC3 corrects a number of usability problems found in the second release candidate. This release is a refresh of 3.0's foundation and a culmination of four years of effort that began with the roadster test vehicle. The build system has been thoroughly worked over, and the user interface has been freshened with several presentation improvements. The vast majority of the work was done 'under the hood'. Here are just a few of the software upgrades: Linux kernel 3.4, glibc 2.14.1, GCC 4.7.2, Perl 5.14.4, Squid 3.3.5, httpd 2.2.24, iptables 1.4.14, and Openswan 2.6.38."
