I have really got my IP Masq. working well and some utilities that are fairly easy to install and maintain are as follows; LogCheck and portsentry both downloadable from - http://www.psionic.com/, Logcheck parses your Logs and sends mail to you with any attacks or alerts and portsentry is a firewall utility that you can deploy in a few different modes. GKrellM, is a great GTK GUI x-based monitoring device, even has skins to match whatever window manager you use, very neat. - http://web.wt.net/~billw/gkrellm/gkrellm.html easyfw is a simple IP Masq configurator that will write your rc.firewall from a x-based GUI, simple simple simple - http://www.linux-kheops.com/pub/easyfw/easyfwGB.html Give them a try they are doing a great job for me and I thought that I would pass this along.
