Shorewall (http://www.shorewall.net) is your friend. The one line: AllowSMB net fw is enough to tell the firewall that you want to allow SMB requests from the Internet to your firewall, for example. It works out the protocols, ports, and IP addresses entirely on its own. Similar things like AllowWeb, AllowDNS, et al. provide ease of configuration I find unmatched and unparalleled in any other firewalling package, anywhere. Cheers, -- Rodolfo J.
