Yes shorewall is a good one. I appreciate Mandrake includes it. A little confusing at first, but once we read the tutorial, it's not that hard to setup. And Tom Eastep - the writer - is very active in the shorewall list. However, don't be offended by his sharp words though (especially when he knows we use mandrake) :) He's actually a very nice person, really :) His sharp words come because he's also a good writer on the documentation, so our problem regarding shorewall mostly has been covered in it. -- Fajar Priyanto | Reg'd Linux User #327841 | http://linux2.arinet.org 07:05:32 up 25 min, Mandrakelinux release 10.1 (Official) for i586 public key: https://www.arinet.org/fajar-pub.key
