Debbie,

Firewalls are reasonably easy to set up under Linux. Iam using
the newer IP-CHAINS programs which replaces IPFWADM in 2.1.108
and newer Linux kernels.

Ip-Chains will be mandatory in Linux using the soon-to-be-released
2.2 kernels.  So it may pay up to forget IPFWADM and go straight
to IP-Chains.

Have a look at:
Paul Russell (the local maintainer) at:

Hope this assists you,
Grahame
