Another site that is interactive and easy to use is:
http://www.linux-firewall-tools.com/lunx/firewall/index.html
Run this site in your netscape browser.
This resulting script (from the website) should be saved in the /etc/rc.d
directory as rc.firewall. If you want it to work in the boot process, edit
the /etc/rc.d/rc.local file and add "/etc/rc.d/rc.firewall" at the end.
There are also instructions on how to install the firewall script on the
website provided above.

Rob Peters

Some Linux firewalls:
Falcon Firewall Project
Phoenix Adaptive Firewall
Sinus Firewall
And of course, ipchains.
I suggest you use ipchains. It's already installed on your linux box. You
should also get Firestarter from http://firestarter.sourceforge.net. It's
a nice GUI frontend to ipchains.
