With FWBuilder, you can set up NAT, define times when specific ports are open, do port forwarding, block specific IPs, etc. You'd have to run it to see what I mean. I used it to set up NAT and port forwarding. One thing I really like about fwbuilder is that you can set up a fw configuration, save it as a file and employ it on all the machines on the network just by copying it to the other machines. I agree that system-config-security level works for simple firewall tasks, but if you need to do something that it doesn't do and you don't want to manually do iptables, fwbuilder is a great tool. -- Kim Lux (Mr.) Diesel Research Inc
