Hi,
I just read this article in Linux Journal October issue. In there review section,
there is a book called
"Building Linux and OpenBSD Firewalls. You can email the the publisher at
[EMAIL PROTECTED] or their
website at http://www.wiley.com/ The book ISBN number is 4-713-5366-3 and the price
is $44.99.
Looks like a good read. Hope this helps.

Ron

You can already start, without spending any money, by reading the
security-HOWTO and the NAG (Network Administrator's Guide).
I even wonder if those are not part of the distribution (but I'm not
sure...). If it's not the case, a search at www.google.com should lead you
to the right place.
