From the RPM: Name : firestarter Arch : i386 Version: 1.0.3 Release: 11.fc5 Size : 1.3 M Repo : extras Summary: Firewall tool for GNOME Description: Firestarter is an easy-to-use, yet powerful, Linux firewall tool for GNOME. Use it to quickly set up a secure environment using the firewall creation wizard, or use it's monitoring and administrating features with your old firewall scripts. -- Charles Curley /"\ ASCII Ribbon Campaign Looking for fine software \ / Respect for open standards and/or writing?
