here, too, I'm using shorewall, because with the semantics in the config 
files, I can easily express what I want. It makes it easy to create very 
complex setups without knowing anything of iptables (although it helps 
to know about it). Moreover, the superb help of Tom Eastep and others in 
the support mailing list makes shorewall the firewall of my choice. 
Hence, the first thing I disable on a fresh centos install: firewall and 
sh**
