One thing I learned from the Denver Group is to use Port Sentry to block access to all ports other than the ones you are actually using.

I am swapping out the box and want to prevent future problems. The only problem is that the box is a Gateway Microserver (Cobalt Qube2 minus telnet ability). Cobalt has a tool on their website for configuring an ip firewall. I don't know enough yet to know which ports/services to lock out and in which order.

Could somebody look at the link and make any recommendations?

The only services I really need to go out are web and mail or is it incoming I need to worry about.
