I recommend you two free firewall scripts based on Netfilter. The first is shorewall(http://www.shorewall.net). This is very flexible and powerful firewall script. But the shorewall has no useful GUI, yet. and you need understanding about TCP/IP and application level protocols, because this script not provide embedded rules.
The another one is gShield(http://muse.linuxmafia.org/gshield.html). Using this script is very easy and simple. This has good GUI frontend, gShieldConf (http://members.home.com/vhodges/gshieldconf.html). The gShield is good for small network or internet connected desktop workstation.
