All these will work:

firestarter http://www.fs-security.com/
shorewall http://www.shorewall.net/
kmyfirewall http://kmyfirewall.sourceforge.net/
guarddog http://www.simonzone.com/software/guarddog/
fwbuilder http://www.fwbuilder.org/

But I strongly recommend firestarter for the job you are talking about. THe 
documentation is good ( http://www.fs-security.com/docs/policy-page.php ), 
and you'll have it configured in ten minutes.
