Sure can.  I left out a word in that sentence.  I meant to say:

"Machines that are used as a packet filtering firewall often fall into 
this category."                                                             ^^^^^

I say that because often times, at least in my experience, a packet 
filtering firewall is configured with no services running so that they 
become very difficult to attack.
