funky new thing today (thanks to the ibm lpi tutorials...and a little

There are a lot of firewall solutions. One that many people recommend is
pmfirewall. It asks you some simple questions about your network: how you get
your IP address, what services you want accessible, etc., then generates a

Hi all,
Well as I get ready to go out to the internet in linux for the first time
had a question. What firewall is good for linux 7.2 ? I basically want a
decent one that I can configure to suit my needs. How about Black Ice
defender ? Will that work with linux ? If not Id like some suggustions
mandrake comes with gfcc. Simply type gfcc at the command prompt or whereis
gfcc and execute the path.

Combine the following, or use gfcc to configure ipchains yourself:
pmfirewall -- an ipchains rules script that's very easy to install:
www.pointman.org
portsentry -- port scan detector that is very sensitive and effective:
www.psionic.com
logchek -- checks your /var/log/messages file at specified
I'm back again, it's question day to day, anybody point me in the right
direction for a good firewall or ways to secure my linux box, any help would
be great. Thanks in advance...
Robert.
