We dumped BIND for our Linux standard and picked up DJBDNS, from the same
developer as Q-Mail. Takes a bit to convert brain cycles to understand his
style of DNS server, beyond that it is working great now.

As well, our Debian based firewall also uses about 31/32 MB of RAM.

We are going to run some IDS on there as well, so the extra memory / CPU in
standard PC's today will not go to waste. Snort and the like...

The various technologies added to Devil Linux can be added to other distros as
well, as usual a Distro is merely a grouping of technologies / starting point
to build your box.
