You can start with 'ipchains-firewall' script to generate the initial set of rules (http://firewall.langistix.com) and also install 'gfcc' which is an easy way to modify the rules. For more start-up tips go to linuxsecurity.com and read October 2000 Linux Journal firewalls article. -- gEEk||dOOd^Deb+ian&&XFce$everything goes<Pronto>(-_-)
