Thank you! My problem is that I have no idea how to set up a firewall using iptables. I know there is something called ports, but I have no idea which ports I should have open or closed. At the moment I have a modem, but I'm a little nervous about having some backdoor open unbeknownst to me once we get ADSL set up. When I get a little extra time, I'll do a little research on it. Do you have website that explains it in a rather basic way?
