The actual firewall in the 2.4 series of Linux is called IPtables and is built into the kernel itself. This is the piece of software that is doing the hard work. However, there is a staggering number of front ends, gui as well as command line based. The Mandrake firewall is just one of them. You'll find at least six other on the Mandrake discs and the various Mdk related RPM sites (Firestarter, Fwbuilder, Guarddog, Kmyfirewall, Knetfilter, Shorewall).
