I used Firewall Builder and found it a reasonable tool for building a moderately complex firewall. It is still a bit technical for a really naive user, but I found it much easier than writing rules by hand. However, the rules it generates go into a shell script you have to run separately at bootup instead of into /etc/sysconfig/iptables, so that's a definite down side. -- Stephen Walton <stephen.walton@xxxxxxxx> Dept. of Physics & Astronomy, Cal State Northridge
