the need for a web client is not because i want something "easy to use".
i need to remotly be able to control and monitor that machine traffic.
i still need a web client. PMFirewall is cute and easy to use, but it will
not do for what i need...
any idea about a web-client ? cause that's the only thing i need to use
right now.
