[wuug-list] Censornet alternative

Hi all,

For years I have been using open-source Censornet [www.censornet.com] as a
webfilter/proxy/firewall/mail server (w/clamav and spamassassin).  Apart
from using standard packages like dansguardian, squid, etc. it has a
wonderful web-based interface to manage workstations, get reports on
bandwidth usage, blacklist/whitelist sites, etc.

Problem is that it is still based on Debian Woody (3.0) - and security
support for woody has ended already in June 2006.  There seems to be no sign
of development on censornet which is a shame.

Question: Anyone know if there a distro out there that targets this type of
server application?

Note:  I know I can grab distro X, and manually add needed packages and
configure them, etc - but trying to avoid the headache!

Thanks,

BJ.
