Hello, a couple of weeks I found this link on debian-firewall: http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/adsl4linux/ADSL4Linux/ADS L4Linux/templates/firewall.iptables.devel?rev=HEAD&content-type=text/vnd .viewcvs-markup
It is a pretty good script. You have to set y or n for a list of services you want to run. The rest of the script is very readable and the firewall is pretty robuust. It is originally desinged for a Dutch ADSL line, but it can easily be adapted to every kind of interface. And it handles dynamic ip's. Put the script in /etc/ppp/ip-up.d (not sure about this), this should start the script when dailed in.
