In general my advice would be to make your system secure /without/ a firewall. I.e. do not run services that you do not need, and make the ones you /do/ need only accessible from the LAN, not from the outside world. Then, you can run a firewall as a double security. It is dangerous to rely on firewalls only for security because it so easy to make mistakes with them. Regards, Jan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
