I personally use Coyote Linux:

     http://www.coyotelinux.com/

I have poked at, but not actually deployed Bering Linux:

     http://leaf.sourceforge.net/

The trade-off appears to be Coyote has a much slicker set-up / floppy
creation package. Bering uses a newer (2.4 as opposed to a 2.2) kernel and
is more advanced filtering system. Either one would be very good for small
home / small office network.
