Do you have a Windows PC on your network? If not, then you don't have
to pay any mind to such worms. If you do, then using the Beige G3
running 10.2.8 and turning on internet sharing in System
Preferences/Sharing Pane will work fine. Leaving the default ports
closed will take care of you, MS leaves them all open, Apple leaves
them all shut. You probably will not need to change anything.

With all the talk about the Sasser worm, I was wondering if someone
could point me in the right direction for firewall rules. I have a
D-link 614+ (4 port router with wireless), but I am not too clear on
firewall rules or ports to block. I will be setting up a Beige G3
between the DSL modem and the router to webserve and act as another
firewall, somewhere in the near future. It will be setup with 2 NICs
and serving dhcp and nat to the router.
thanks for any advice!!
