RE: Free Linux Software Firewalls

For freeware, linux-based firewall _appliances_, you could always use either
Smoothwall, or IPCop.  If at all possible, I encourage you to not put your
firewall and your webserver on the same machine...  If somehow your firewall
was compromised, you'd rather not give the attacker unfettered access to
your webserver too.

Gavin.

Iptables is good.  I believe some commercial firewalls are based on
iptables but offer a GUI frontend networked appliance.

We are running a RedHat ES web server. What is the best open source 
firewall software out there?
