Pretty simple to use, yet seems quite complete. I tried using firestarter back when I was using Suse, but never could quite get the hang of it. It was probably from the fact that that was my first foray into firewalls, and I was clueless about the different options, and what it all meant. (Not to say that much has changed on my part even now !)
I also use fwbuilder on my Linksys router, mainly because it supports, and has a pre-configured firewall for, custom Sveasoft firmware running way-stripped down version of Linux on the router. HTH, John -- The revolution will not be televised. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
