Does Familiar Linux load a fairly standard kernel? If so, depending on what
size it's allowed to be (I'm assuming that PDAs have restricted memory for
this sort of thing, like embedded systems), you should be able to compile the
normal netfilter options and do your firewalling as usual?
Remember that netfilter isn't an application which runs on the system - it's
part of the kernel, so it should work on anything which talks TCP/IP.
Or maybe there's something about Familiar Linux (which I'm not familiar with,
BTW) which means this isn't possible...?
