Matthew,

I'm curious about something. Since I started using Linux almost two
years ago I've only ever used PMfirewall and it's default location is
/usr/local. I'm very inttrigued in this "firewall.txt" that someone
posted and am curious to know where in the filesystem one would place a
file such as this to be used by ipchains. Any ideas?
