Berni I know it nice to use a GUI to solve all of your problems, but I want to know the actuall syntax before downgrading myself. I have used GFCC before, it works nicely, you can load pre-configure rules for your system. But, those rules are not what I want, I want to write own script so that I learn what exactly IPChains is doing. BTW, the rc.firewall file is located in the /etc/rc.d directory, you can simply edit it with any text based editor to insert or add your own rules.
