PsygNAT is a
free firewall and
NAT router tool for i386 which boots off
on a single floppy. It is based on the
OpenBSD kernel and therefore, uses
pf as its native ruleset
management.
PsygNAT contains the necessary tools in configuring a simple NAT router,
a stateful (and transparent) firewall, or a bandwidth limiter via
ALTQ.
It supports both static and dynamic client setup. It also includes
mg,
an emacs-like text editor, which can be used to write firewall and network address translation
rules.
PsygNAT is free for
download by anyone, under the terms of an
ISC-like license and
other licenses found on the OpenBSD
sources.

The name PsygNAT came from my IRC
nick: 'psygnosis' and the acronym 'NAT'. Ugh! I just can't think of a good
name. The word 'psygnosis' used in this site is not in anyway related to
Sony Computer Entertainment.
