Its a nice script-tool I had used in the past
it has one shotcomming... It assumes you have
one or two eth cards, and no ppp dialup
connection, that can be fixed easily, But
the ppp option should be 'considered' in his
java script.

I am on a dedicated line, connected full time to the net,  via ppp
just have another pc running a dual boot pc, most used OS linux
even for my kids (a 14 year and almost 18 girls!) ;-)  and love it!

I have been using gfcc to customize the pre-configured
ppp-masquerade.rule to reflect my system  addressing

I would like to try out the Sinus Proyect firewall, but actually
is available in tar only... and is Not easy to install and set up.
just hoping a soul dares to take it and make an rpm.
not judge me wrong, I like tar file and compile my own, but
have had no success with Sinus.  ;-(

I run a web server, not sensitive information... but is always nice
to be protected, and keep pests and would be hackers of your sys
they are just annoying.... not really much to loose regarding informationn.

I used port-sentry long time ago, I like to run nmap and other tools to
test my system, just to be informed of weaknesses... ;-)  if ANY!
