Um, smoothwall and freesco (hi, Dave!) are great, but if I understand right,
the box will have 2 IP addresses pointed at it. I do not know of any
plug-n-play firewall solution that will work with more than 1 IP.

Your best bet is to write your own firewall rules, perhaps adapting what
clarkconnect is already spitting out. I really don't think it should be that
hard to do. However, I do have to ask why you're getting multiple IPs from
Cox. What are you trying to do? Perhaps we can help you find a better way to
do it with only 1 IP, or something.
