You can do that very quickly in m0n0Wall, as all the administration is Web based

ah ok.
But i bet it cant do anything else than being a firewall.
No webserver?

No, there's no webserver. It's strictly a firewall/router.
Although it has thttp (Tiny http) built in, it's only for web management from the LAN side, and not accessible from the WAN (Internet) side.
It was designed like that on purpose.
These are the features it supports: http://m0n0.ch/wall/features.php

I forgot to mention that personal firewalls do have a right to exist. ZoneAlarm for example is very good in controlling what Programs may access the internet (i.e. if you don't want that MS-Office phones home or the like). I'm running a D-Link router with implemented Firewall and ZoneAlarm at the moment but I want to take a look at other PFWs in the future. Any ideas?

But still:
Anyone here knows about a server os [based on freebsd or linux], that has
a websetup, and have Web, ftp and all those stuff?
