Re: firestarter
Hi Paul,
I personally haven't use such a program since I know very little about
networking stuff.
However, I searched the net and found the a wiki page you might be
interested in <https://wiki.debian.org/DebianFirewall#Graphic_applications_and_frontends>.
The wiki page suggested many Graphic applications and frontends for
iptables, such as ferm <https://packages.debian.org/jessie/ferm>,
which is available since squeeze.
PS: I mistakenly set up auto-reply yesterday, sorry for replying you
with an empty email.
Cheers,
Alex
