IPCop

I had this in the Networking section but was not getting any answers. Does anyone here know anything about this software?

I just recently heard about IPCop. I am curious if anyone knows anything about this program/os and if I should attempt to use it. I currently have a cable modem connected straight to my pc with a trial version firewall. But what I want is to setup IPCop on a pc and connect the cable modem to it then connect that pc to a hub/switch and connect my computers to it. Also, I am curious if with this setup I could connect my work laptop to it and then use my work vpn client? A lot of questions, I know but I haven't had the time to read up on this yet and I need to set it up tomorrow or buy a router, if I set it up this way I don't have to buy anything because I have all the listed items. Thanks for any and all help. Oh, and if I have put this in the wrong thread please move it or let me know thanks.
