If you use kernel 2.4.x, you can use shorewall with iptables (apt-get install
shorewall shorewall-doc). it's got very good documentations, it has a lot of
features and it's easy to use.
I had some problems with the version in woody (somehow it wouldn't do DNAT),
so I eventually downloaded their package from http://www.shorewall.net. I
guess that the package from unstable in ok (shorewall is only a front-end to
iptables so using the one from stable wouldn't be too much of a security risk
- am I wrong here, anybody?).
