Take a look at Pktfilter at http://www.hsc.fr/ressources/outils/pktfilter/ It's stateless, but very good and quite flexible nevertheless. Also, like netfilter, it's free. I've been using it for about eight months and it gets the job done very well indeed.

We have a completely Linux back-end environment but unfortunately hundreds of windows desktops. I'm pretty tired of all the attacks on the unprotected windows boxes but don't have the authority to put up a network firewall. We protect all of our Linux servers with iptables. Does anyone know of a similar tool for windows, particularly w2k? The built-in stuff seems to be virtually worthless.
Thanks,

Thanks! This is just about exactly what we were looking for. It works almost exactly like ipchains. We use a PXE application (Rembo Tool Kit http://www.rembo.com) for workstation management so it's ideal to be able to change a text file and update the rules.
