are there some tools for creation of iptables rules that you could refer me to. I would appreciate it when you could write an opinion to the tool you maybe use.
the kids seem to be fond of fwbuilder:
http://www.fwbuilder.org/
i personally haven't ever used it to create an actual iptables rule set, so i can't give an informed opinion.
I've looked t a number of these 'tools' including fwbuilder, and the main problem with them is, they are mostly written for redhat systems, and the problem with redhat systems is that most the lernel and glic hacks redhat impliments makes it near impossible to POM in new netfilter code and recompile. Redhat is not the way to go if one wishes to be in tune with the latest and greatest or more then the minimum defaults included these days.
Thanks,

The most any of us can do is sign on as it's accomplice. Instead
of vowing to honor and obey, maybe we should swear to aid and abet.
That would mean that security is out of the question. The words
"make" and "stay" become inappropriate. My love for you has no
strings attached. I love you for free...
