Your eyes must be better than mine :-) . I used Firewall Builder and
found it a reasonable tool for building a moderately complex firewall.
It is still a bit technical for a really naive user, but I found it much
easier than writing rules by hand. However, the rules it generates go
into a shell script you have to run separately at bootup instead of into
/etc/sysconfig/iptables, so that's a definite down side.
