I had read an article a while back which claimed that inside of a network 
(that's already firewalled) each machine should also be firewalled. 

So, my firewall/gateway runs in front of say 5 other computers. These 
machines inside the network do various things, mp3 server, file server 
etc...What would be the advantage of setting up seperate firewalls on each 
of these 5 machines? Basically I ssh into these (monitorless) machines from 
either inside the network or from my server (ssh'd in from work). I turn off 
any unused services like telnet, ftp in inetd.conf.


thanks!
