You can always go into the rule editor and fix mistakes later.
My only complaint with little snitch is that I can't set the defaults
on my own. And that there isn't (to my knowledge) a linux variant.
Well, basically Little Snitch creates outbound firewall rules tied to
applications. You can do the same thing by hand with iptables, i
think (or can you only tie to a running process/user?). The trick is
the GUI component, and a little Tcl/Tk (or Perl/Tk) could handle
that. Might not integrate perfectly with the GNOME/KDE desktop stuffs
easily, but that's version 0.2, right?
