 Full discloser time. My day job is with ICSAlabs. My area is security
 protocols research (like setttin up the initial IPsec certification
 criteria), but when I visit the labs there are all those firewall

 gang over in the labs about 'simple' firewalls, but there are only
 certain things the boss funds here. So then I have to go cheap.

While IPTABLES might be CHEAP (price) it is a very good firewall.
Learn to set it up from the command line, it isn't that hard.
Try the following to learn it;

http://iptables.rlworkman.net/chunkyhtml/index.html

Forget those GUI interfaces.
This might be best for my current needs...

thanks
