I needed to create some quick firewall rules today (using my laptop as a
NAT router for a few hours).  The problem was that I had been working on
~ my usual script, which was then not working.

Anyway, I discovered that I had firestarter installed.  It can quickly
get you up and running with some decent firewall rules.  I was able to
set up a NAT, default outbound deny, traffic shaping (not customizable
via the GUI), DHCP, and some port forwards, with just a few clicks.

It has a status tab that shows the throughput on each interface as well
as the currently active connections.

All in all a pretty solid app.

It is a gui app btw.

Cheers,
