problem is...what does one use on a Mandrake 9.0 box if not shorewall because I've had a terrible time in the past trying to get Bastille to work on an MDK 9 box, which led me swiftly back to an 8.2 installation for server use.

and I did take a look at gShield. The little bugger liked to drove me nuts!

My only relevant experience is not being able to get Shorewall to quickly work and having subsequent success with guarddog, in contrib. It has a simple gui and the help brings up an easy-to-follow kde tutorial for the basic configuration. For protocols like rsync, ldap, cvs, rdate, I would look for the port used in the man, in /etc/services, or at google and add it through the 'Advanced' tab. It took me as much as to strace gpg to find what port it was using to import a key from a keyserver but everything I needed, so far, has been doable.
