No, I'm not saying that - iptables is there. And you could quickly code 
something, but that's not something a relative newcomer like myself would 
know how to do quickly. Kind of flies in the face of ubuntu's ease-of-use 
philosophy. I think I understand their thinking on it, but I still think it 
would be preferable to allow the user at least the basic security choices 
that FC does on install.
