Ha, it is here already. I bought it and yes it is a good book, but propably not specific enough for the OP. It has about 20 pages on design and the appendix has 2 examples. For generic information I recommend "Building Internet Firewalls" very highly. For in-depth information buy Bob Ziegler's "Linux Firewalls 2nd Edition". If you are a bit short on cash you could visit Oskar Andreasson's site and download the excellent "IPTables Tutorial". You can find it at http://iptables-tutorial.frozentux.net/. HTH Grx HdV
