buy a book on iptables and learn it.  that's the best advice i can give you as 
i see too many people setting up a firewall and not knowing what they're 
doing.

if you learn how to set it up yourself, then you can use a setup like 
shorewall to do the gruntwork and check over it afterword, otherwise you're 
just hoping it did its job the way you wanted it done.
