I disagree. We do not have to provide a Zone Alarm clone. Its

Right now there is simply no such ability. Having this on say a server
will prevent users from looking around the network if they have shell
access or sending info/data out. Obviously only root should be able to
see the list of process names allowed and the other conditions like uid
and ports allowed to use by the process.
