ClosedBSD is a FreeBSD derived firewall distribution bootable from
a cdrom, compact flash, or floppy diskette. It features a complete
curses based user interface for managing your network interfaces
and firewall rulesets.

The ClosedBSD project is no longer maintained, however I've made
the source available here in case anyone is interested in working
with it or contributing to it. I will happily review any pull
requests.

The last known FreeBSD release that the ClosedBSD build was compatible
with was 4.5-RELEASE. I have tried a few times to get the build process
working with current FreeBSD releases, however critical things
have changed and the procedures need to be updated.

The Makefile in this directory has a number of convenience targets for
building and mastering ClosedBSD boot images from the source tree. Most
of the time users can simply type 'make iso' and the build infrastructure
will DTRT. For more detailed information, please read the Makefile.

The build process has been completely reworked such that unattended builds
from source are now possible. Objects are built outside of the source tree
using the standard MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX semantics familiar to BSD systems.
