Thx, ye I know about these, but really go take a look at the new Win2003 firewall config builder - I think the OSS community should take note and impl something similar (cant be hard to do, fwbuilder can be made to look like it I think)
I am not familiar with the Win2003 firewall config builder but I am familiar with the pain of trying to learn/use fwbuilder. I was trying to use it for Solaris 10. I tinkered for a while before I discovered that it wasn't really compatible (at that time) with Solaris 10. I saw this thread and got a little excited because I too wish there was an easy to use firewall config tool. At this point I am back to using SuSEfirewall2 because it is the only thing I have learned adequately.

Hi . If you want a Firewall that is easy to install and manage and have a spare machine to run it on then Smoothwall is real easy to install and config it does not need much in the way of system have it running on an old P100 with 256 Mb ram you only need a monitor and keyboard connected for the install and initial setup then you can loose them ( Used to use BBiagent but they have not answered the last dozen or so attempts at contacting them ) Pete . -- This message originated from a Linux computer using Open Source software: SuSE Linux 10.3-Alpha2.
