you need to keep in mind that if your netfilter box is performing
MASQ/SNAT for your LAN machines--the IP being scanned by grc.com is the
public IP of the netfilter box.

unless your doing some DNATs to machines on your LAN--you should focus
your efforts on the netfilter machine itself.

"netstat -lntu" would be a good place to start.

i've always questioned the output of web-based scanners like grc.com;
however, i just went to grc.com and tried it out, and achieved a
*perfect* "TruStealth" rating...which must mean i'm super l33t like
stevie...  :-P
