I haven't started reading on iptables yet, so I don't no how hard it is,
but what you've done sounds like what I need. And I could use some help
here, so I would be pleased if you could post or mail your scripts.
Especially the rcS.d part sounds like I could steel some ideas from to
further secure my current ip-chains based firewall until the day that
I switch to a 2.4 kernel.
