I'm running ipchains on a dual homed linux server. I'm using trinity's
ipchain rules. I asked this question because I've read an article that
packet filtering isn't good. We know for a fact that stateful inspection is
really good. And right now, project is still being develop for stateful
inspection.

my setup:
eth0 - internal interface
eth1 - external interface
ip spoofing enabled, 
patched redhat 6.1
and I've only allowed a specific network to telnet in coming from the
external interface.
inetd.conf already edited with minimal running services.
hosts.allow and hosts.deny already edited with ALL:ALL in hosts.deny
securetty also edited
no anonymous logins
and removed some r_x permissions for world in executables

Is this secure enough?
