We are running a router/firewall from a standard Debian distro using 111Mb, but this includes keeping a local set of logs so getting to your 100Mb mark should be easy.
To duplicate the machine after the first set up either dd to a second disk, and change config files, or do a standard install and do a dpkg --get-selections '*' > package.list from the master and a dpgk --set-selections < package.list on the second, third, etc. machine. Finish up with a apt-get dselect-upgrade and you have a second machine with all the same packages. You also could burn the system to a CD and run from there. I'm curious where your 100Mb goal came from? Pete -- http://www.elbnet.com ELB Internet Services, Inc.
